pohl commented on XALANC-245:
-----------------------------

We have encountered this exact issue in XalanJ 2.6.0.  I can't
find a XalanJ issue that tracks fixing it.

Is it Xalan developer policy to fix both implementations at the
same time, or do we need a separate issue to be entered?

> When
>   substring-before("Some string with a newline","&#xA") 
> or 
>   substring-after("Some string with a newline","&#xA") 
> are called, they return strings of 0 length, even though 
>   contains("Some string with a newline","&#xA") 
> evaluates to TRUE.
> When the split string is expanded to include a non-escaped character, 
> such ".&#xA", the routines return proper values and treats the newline 
> character properly.
