this message is _also_ a bug in the xsltproc+xsl combination:
when I add

        <xsl:value-of select="$target"/>
        <xsl:value-of select="$target/@xreflabel"/>

to
     <xsl:template match="listitem" mode="object.xref.markup">
in common/gentext.xsl inside

      <xsl:message>
        <xsl:text>Xref is only supported to listitems in an</xsl:text>
        <xsl:text> orderedlist: </xsl:text>
        <xsl:value-of select="@id"/>
        <xsl:value-of select="$target"/>
        <xsl:value-of select="$target/@xreflabel"/>
      </xsl:message>

the error message you quote disappears and everything works as expected.
