Re: MSXML v. Saxon - whose bug?
If the pattern contains multiple alternatives separated by
|, then it is treated equivalently to a set of template
rules, one for each alternative.
If the pattern has the form of a QName preceded by a
ChildOrAttributeAxisSpecifier or has the form
processing-instruction(Literal) preceded by a
ChildOrAttributeAxisSpecifier, then the priority is 0.
If the pattern has the form NCName:* preceded by a
ChildOrAttributeAxisSpecifier, then the priority is -0.25.
Otherwise, if the pattern consists of just a NodeTest
preceded by a ChildOrAttributeAxisSpecifier, then the
priority is
-0.5.
Otherwise, the priority is 0.5.
