The 'test.xml' file with the Slides doctype version 1.1
does not generate correctly with Xalan 1.2.2 (Java). It
*does* work correctly with Saxon 6.2.2 (and I would
assume 'xt' since the makefiles, etc. refer to xt).

This is what occurs:

-------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------

Now since it works with Saxon and xt, I'd think this
could be a *Xalan* bug, but I thought you should be
aware of this.

    Xalan 1.x isn't supported anymore. But thanks for pointing
    out that it doesn't work.
