The variable item-elements is the root node of a temporary tree, and when you apply-templates to it, the template rule invoked is the one with match="/". Use apply-templates select="$var/*", or use a mode. Note that Saxon 6.5 does not correctly enforce all the restrictions in the XSLT 1.0 specification, which prevent you using a result tree fragment as a node-set in this way.
