           Summary: [XPath] default axis for schema-attribute(x)
           Product: XPath / XQuery / XSLT
           Version: Candidate Recommendation
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: NEW

Soren Kuula [dongfang@dongfang.dk] has pointed out on the mulberrytech xsl-list
that rule 2 in XPath section 3.2.4 (Abbreviated Syntax for steps) causes the
step attribute(x) to default to using the attribute axis, but the axis for the
step schema-attribute(x) is the child axis. This is surely an error.
