------- Additional Comments From David_Marston@lotus.com  2001-11-12 10:55 -------
Tests COPYerr04 (xsl:copy-of) and COPYerr05 (xsl:copy) are designed to set up
the error scenario properly. An error could be raised, or the node not copied.

WORKAROUND: The correct way to move a subtree, attributes and all, under some
other element is to copy the attributes separately and first.
<xsl:template match="source-node">
  <destination-node>
    <xsl:copy-of select="@*"/>
    <xsl:copy-of select="*"/>
  </destination-node>
</xsl:template>
