stylesheet element missing version attribute causes core dump in Xalan command-line

           Summary: stylesheet element missing version attribute causes core
                    dump in Xalan command-line
           Product: XalanC
           Version: 1.4.x
          Platform: Sun
        OS/Version: Solaris
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Enhancement
          Priority: Other
         Component: XalanC
        AssignedTo: xalan-dev@xml.apache.org
        ReportedBy: r343l@vzavenue.net


Given this xml (min.xml):

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<foo/>

And this xsl (min.xsl):

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
</xsl:stylesheet>

The command line: Xalan -o min.out min.xml min.xsl results in:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

This is the expected result. However deleting 'version="1.0"' from the
stylesheet results in a core dump. Obviously this isn't urgent or anything, but
it is a little confusing if the user just forgets to put it in (XSL being one of
the few XML standards that require a version indicated separate from the
namespace or doctype.)
