Yes. So given:

 <xsd:pattern value = "[0-9][.][0-9]*"/> 
 <xsd:pattern value = "[1-9][0-9]*[.][0-9]*"/>
 <xsd:pattern value = "[1-9][0-9]*"/>

0123 is not valid according to any of the above patterns.

I don't see how that is related to the 3rd pattern any more than the
other 2.  0123 is not valid according to any of the 3 patterns.

I've tried the above using Xerces-J 1.4.4, Xerces-J 2 (version 2.0.1, I
think) and Xerces-C.  Works as expected on all of them.

I attach my test example and schema.
