I suspect people are going to find it difficult to remember the
required order here, and indeed the DTD and the RNG have opposite
orders.  How about we have

 ((p:xpath-context? & p:variable*),
  p:when*, p:otherwise?)

or, better, but more prolix:

 (p:variable*,
  (p:xpath-context, p:variable*)?,
  p:when*, p:otherwise?)
