It seems to be a match on an element with any namespace but the literal
NCName/local name 'element', why should that match an element with the
local name 'd'?
It is not a node kind test.

<xsl-list-service@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>: Dear xsl-list, There's
following XSLT test case (attr/match, test case name match-036 with <spec
value="XSLT20+"/>) within W3C XSLT 3.0 test suite.
XML document:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<doc xmlns:a="http://a.com/" xmlns:b="http://b.com/" xmlns:c="http://c.com/"
xmlns:d="http://d.com/">
<a:element a:attribute="1">
<b:element b:attribute="2">
<c:element c:attribute="3">
<d>
 <element attribute="4"/>
</d>
</c:element>
</b:element>
</a:element>
</doc>
XSLT document:
(I've added, <xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes"/> to produce indented
XML transform result that help with discussion)
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transf orm"
 version="2.0">

 <xsl:strip-space elements="foo"/>

 <xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes"/>

 <xsl:template match="doc">
<out>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</out>
 </xsl:template>

 <xsl:template match="*:element">
[<xsl:value-of select="name()"/>}
<xsl:apply-templates select="@*"/>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
 </xsl:template>

 <xsl:template match="@*:attribute">
 (@<xsl:value-of select="name()"/>)
 </xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

Using Saxon HE 12.9, we get following XSL transform result for this test
case,
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<out>

[a:element}

(@a:attribute)

[b:element}

(@b:attribute)

[c:element}

(@c:attribute)

[element}

(@attribute)

</out>
Whe reas, Xalan XSLT 3.0 development code, produces following XSL
transform result for this test case,

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<out>

[a:element}

(@a:attribute)

[b:element}

(@b:attribute)

[c:element}

(@c:attribute)

[d}

[element}

(@attribute)

</out>

I think that, Xalan XSLT 3.0 development code, is producing correct
result for this test case. Saxon is missing [d} within an XSL transform
result for this test case.
Thanks in advance, for any insights to discuss this XSL transform
example.
