  Yes.

  But I think it is a feature, not a bug.  Or say a design
choice: it is not possible to test the availability of a
stylesheet function.  I guess it is to simplify
implementations, to give them a possibility of optimization.

  Because at the compile time, when the processor treat the
@use-when, it has not already seen all stylesheet functions.
So it'd have to perform a second pass to compile or not the
branches depending on function-available().  But I said I
guess; you know that better than me.

  Maybe I could post the question on XSL List?
