Now that Bug 6160 is resolved, let's return to your original comment.

Given the query 1+(), we agree that the FS rules (applied to the normalized
query) raise an error. "However," you say, "I suspect that the intention of
these rules was to allow this query to pass without error."  My response is
that, regardless of their intention, their effect (raising an error) agrees
with the requirements of the XQuery/XPath language spec, and therefore this
example does not constitute a bug. On 2008-10-27, the XQuery WG agreed, and
directed me to mark this issue as resolved-invalid.  If you agree with this
resolution, please mark the issue closed.

This is not to assert that the two specs are always in agreement re raising
XPST0005, rather that if valid examples of disagreement are found, they
should go in another bug report.
