That's too bad because it seems to work so well if the required 
declaration order is known.

Although I'd rather stick with pure XSLT 1.0, I'm thinking about solving 
my problem by calling EXSLT user-defined functions in the match pattern of 
an xsl:key.  However, after reading this discussion

  http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=122483

I'm feeling slightly uneasy.  Assuming there are no variable references 
anywhere in the dependency chain of the match pattern, this remains 
accepted/supported usage, right?

Thanks.
