Re: not()'ing a false variable, xalan 2.4.D1

  I am trying to make a variable that is either true or false, and
later doing an <xsl:if> operation with the condition being not'd, but
for some reason xalan 2.4.D1 is saying that a not("variable assigned
as false") is not true.

Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

Test case:

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

<xsl:output method="xml"/>

<xsl:template match="/">

    <!-- make a false variable entitled 'false-variable' -->
    <xsl:variable name="false-variable">
      <xsl:value-of select="false()"/>
    </xsl:variable>
