Microsoft Corporation has formally objected to the working group's resolution 
of this bug.  Michael Rys provided the rationale in 
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Member/w3c-xsl-query/2005Sep/0055.html

"We feel that the arguments made in the Working group in favor of the
current semantics on the value comparisons are less beneficial and more
costly for our users and implementers for supporting them, than our
proposed alternative that aligns the semantics with the general
comparison operators. We provided a detailed change proposal at
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Member/w3c-xsl-query/2005Jun/0027 that
showed how our proposal can address all the concerns brought forward on
the technical level."
