Subject:  Selecting child elements bar one

Hi all,

According to:

http://www.dpawson.co.uk/xsl/sect2/N6191.html#d8248e349

this is supposed to work:

  <xsl:template match="/">
    <xsl:apply-templates select="*[not(self::two)]" />
  </xsl:template>

i.e., given this XML input:

  <doc>
    <one>foo</one>
    <two>bar</two>
    <three>baz</three>
  </doc>

element 'two' should be excluded.

Well, I'm getting:

  foo
  bar
  baz

and it's starting to drive me crazy.  What's worse, is that I know the
answer is going to be so damn obvious I'm going to feel incredibly
stupid, more so than I do already.  Aaaarrrggghhh, I think XSLT hates
me!
