But position() would return a number and it seems such an obvious way to use
it as an index...
Nice btw to use the select on a message, saves some typing!

a filter of /foo/bar[position()] with a numeric value
is short for the boolean test
/foo/bar[position()=position()]
so the test is always true.
Also xsl:message has a select attribute so you can use
<xsl:message select="$file-nbn-set/nbn-set/nbn[position()=5]"/>
