Yes and it works when i use Saxon 9.5 whatever against the XML snippet that I posted. Unfortunately for me that is not how the XML manifests, rather it is the product of some intermediate step and pipelined through a variable. i.e the XML you saw is actually the content of a variable (call it $line) which is the subject of an apply-templates as in <xsl:apply-templates select="$line"/> where $line contains the posted XML. Now that shouldn't make a difference but duplicates aren't being eliminated in this scenario. So the plot thickens.
