  Ok, thanks.  If I understood well, in the following
example:

    <xsl:variable name="a" select="elem/a"/>
    <xsl:variable name="b" select="elem/b"/>

    <xsl:sequence select="elem/b, elem/a"/>
    <xsl:sequence select="$b, $a"/>
    <xsl:sequence select="elem/(b, a)"/>

when applied in the context of:

    <elem>
      <a/>
      <b/>
    </elem>

the sequences will be resp. (with an ad-hoc syntax):

    (<b/>, <a/>)
    (<b/>, <a/>)
    (<a/>, <b/>)

  In the two first cases, duplicates can also appear, not in
the last one.

  Is it correct?

  Thanks,
