With the old version of xt the following match pattern 
(including character references) worked w/o problems.

<xsl:template match="&#x0440;&#x0443;&#x0441;">

With the present version of xt I get an "illegal character"
message. Is the use of character references (now) forbidden
in match patterns (I thought they were bona fide characters)?

PS. These Unicode-based character references corrrespond to
    Cyrillic letters.
