  With 8.9J and 8.9.0.2J, the error is encountered in SA and
not B.  And in SA the error is encountered at runtime (at
least the XSLT stack trace and the error message look like
it is).

  I don't know if this deserves to be looked further at.

  BTW, is it legal to have a compile error for the
following:

    <xsl:variable name="..." as="item()" select="
        if ( $... ) then ... else ()"/>

?  Note I'm just curious, I love having early reporting on
such issues.
