I would expect the expression in the xsl:if > statement to return false. Interesting. I think it should probably return a java-object-wrapper whose contained object is null; it's not an unreasonable suggestion that converting such a value to a boolean should return false. I'll think about it. At present the effect of calling an external Java function that returns null is not defined, so the null pointer exception, while unfriendly, is not exactly a bug.
