Some further input on this: see
http://www.w3.org/TR/2005/WD-xslt20-20050211/#changes-2005-02

"Changes in the February 2005 draft"

including the following:

The behavior of certain constructs in backwards-compatible mode has changed to
more closely reflect the XSLT 1.0 behavior. Specifically:

...     In backwards compatible mode, parameters passed to a built-in template
rule are not passed on.

It looks as if we made a decision to make this change, added it to the change
log and to the non-normative "backwards compatibility" appendix, but failed to
make any change to the normative section (6.6 Built-In Template Rules) where it
belongs.
