  Dunno, use testXPath from libxml distribution to understand what's 
happening. I don't even understand what the expresssion is supposed
to do.
  Basically if you want me to debug something simplifying it to the
point where running one of the test programs I provides allows to exhibit
the bug and an explanation of what is wrong is the only way for me to handle
this fast.

  Use testXPath on a document, fragment the expression until you find
the subset which is giving troubles and I will fix it in a timely fashion.
