I have problems getting a parameter passed using
apply-templates. In the W3C rec. and Mike Kay's
book I read that this should be possible. 
Stripped to the core I have the following snippet 
(I have only one xsl:template with mode="Xrevised"). 

<xsl:template match="/">
<!-- ... -->
	<xsl:apply-templates mode="Xrevised">
		<xsl:with-param name="xyz" select="1234"/>
	</xsl:apply-templates>
<!-- ... -->
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="text()" mode="Xrevised">
<xsl:param name="xyz"/><!--<xsl:param name="xyz" select="678"/>-->
           <xsl:text>template output:</xsl:text><br />
		   <xsl:value-of select="$xyz"/> <br />
</xsl:template>

The code  results in a lot of lines with only
	template output: 
When taking the xsl:param element from the
comment part instead I get (a lot of):
	template output: 
	678
just as if there wasn't an xyz parameter specfied at the callers site.

I tried this with msxml(sept preview) xt & Saxon and
all give the same results. Am I missing something?
Any help greatly appreciated.
