OK. It's a bug then.
I've already fixed quite a few bugs that I've discovered since
releasing alpha-1. It may be that's it's already fixed.

You have 3 choices:

1) Use the Bugs tracker on the sourceforge site to to upload a data
   file plus all the xslt modules, and I can try and fix it.

or 

2) I could compile a debug version which will give a stack trace. You
   could then download that and send me back the stack trace (but it
   may take a very long time indeed to run - my XPath test suite, for
   instance, takes 43 seconds, but over 5 hours with the debug version
   compiled with the particular complier I use on MacOSX).

or

3) Forget all about it, and just hope the bug will have mysteriously
   dissappeared when alpha-2 is released.
