possible bug in xalan - document() function?

xalan document function
Hi!

If i haven't misunderstood the XSLT spec completely I should be able to do a
"document( node-set )"
as an expression and that would result in the XSLT engine reading out each
of incoming node's (1-st level of nodes) value as a string and doing a
document( string ) on each of those elements and the result would be a union
of each of the read files.

When doing a document( node-set ) in cocoon1.7 - xalan, seems to give me
strange errors.

In the following example I have a file-list in files.xml defined like this:
<file-list>
  <absolute>file://\z:\myroot\file1.xml</absolute>
  <absolute>file://\z:\myroot\file2.xml</absolute>
</file-list>

my stylesheet has a template like this (output html):

<xsl:template match="page">
  <BODY>
  <xsl:variable name="files"
                select="document('file:///Z:/myroot/files.xml')"/>
  <xsl:for-each selct="document($files//file-list/absolute)">
     Don't do anything now
  </xsl:for-each>
  </BODY>
</xsl:template>

When applying the above stylesheet to an xml-file only containing <page/>
using cocoon (setting PI's to define what stylesheet to use), I get the
following output in my browser

------------------------------------------------
Error found handling the request.

at org.apache.xalan.xslt.XSLTEngineImpl.error(XSLTEngineImpl.java:1650)

Compiled Code)
at org.apache.xalan.xpath.xml.TreeWalker.startNode(TreeWalker.java, Compiled
Code)
------------------------------------------------

No indication of what might be wrong even..

Has anyone successfully used cocoon, document() function on a node-set? Is
this bug perhaps fixed in Xalan 1.0, but not in the version distributed with
cocoon1.7?

Cheers,
Martin
