I wrote one test case that shows that Xalan (1.0.1, Java version)
will correctly incorporate a null value into the keyspace, and
even key off it. I'll try to think up some more variations, but
the problem is clearly not pervasive in xsl:key.

Right now, nobody's allowed in, no matter who they merely are.
I don't know when that problem will get fixed.
