Well, you're running the risk there that an XSLT processor will decide that it doesn't matter whether the test is true or false, it's not going to output anything anyway, so why bother evaluating it? And if it does evaluate it, it will probably fail trying to convert a void to a boolean... The fact of the matter is, XSLT and side-effects don't mix very well.
