The rules were rewritten between XSLT 1.0 and 2.0, but in both cases, I cant see any reason why a processor should treat 0 and 0.0 differently. Looks like a bug to me. Bugs are fairly excusable in 1.0 because the spec is so vague (and since it depends on JDK 1.1, its actually very hard to get hold of), but 0 and 0.0 in XSLT 1.0 represent exactly the same quantity, so its certainly odd behaviour.
