"Off by one" bug in xsl:copy-of function in Xalan-C

["Son, G.J. van" <va...@WT.TNO.NL>]

Hi all,

I am trying out the TestXSLT.exe utility on a Windows NT platform,
using Xalan-C++ version 1.0 and Xerces-C++ Parser version 1.3.0.
When running 'TestXSLT -in err.xml -xsl err.xsl -xml -out out.xml'
I got following output file in which the ID's seem to have been shifted.

I could think of a workaround in this case, but we use the 'xsl:copy-of'
function also in other sections where workarounds are not so obvious.
Is this a bug I stumbled upon, or am I missing something?

Thanks in advance for any insights, Gertjan.
