Would people interested in helping to share this funding please contact me
privately with the above subject line (I won't post the details
publicly)?

To be honest, I'd be a lot more interested in doing the work myself or
as part of a team than in paying somebody else to do it. I've been
considering that for a while now. So far it's been easier to fix Jaxen's
XPath and rely on Xalan for XSLT than to fix Saxon, but that may not be
true forever, especially if performance becomes a concern.
