xsl:sort

<xsl:variable name="rString"
  select="('AB','c', 'dEF', 'ghij', 'KLmno','PqrSt','uvwxy','z','123',
'456789')"/>

<xsl:for-each select="$rString">
<xsl:sort select="."  order="descending"   case-order ="upper-first"/>
  <xsl:value-of select="." separator="| "/>
</xsl:for-each>

The requirement is to sort the sequence with a conflicting order,
both upper case first and descending (I think that's conflicting).

Saxon 7.4 gives me
zuvwxyPqrStKLmnoghijdEFcAB456789123 
which appears to satisfy the descending.

I can't find anything in the WD which specifies which might take precedent?
