Thanks for your replies.  self::B as well as local-name()='B' worked.

This version assumed I'd use two consecutive for-each clauses, one 
for the B children and one for not-B-children.

So we'd be talking about a select="not(B)" here, wouldn't we?

When I try this though:

<xsl:foreach select="not(B)">
    some diagnostic output here
    <xsl:apply-templates />
</xsl:foreach>

It seems to only select a single item and not apply any templates in
apply-templates(!?)
