I would, but I can't reproduce your error. This works for me:

<p:declare-step version='1.0' xmlns:p="http://www.w3.org/ns/xproc" name="main"
                xmlns:cx="http://xmlcalabash.com/ns/extensions"
                xmlns:c="http://www.w3.org/ns/xproc-step">

  <p:output port="result"/>

  <p:xquery >
    <p:input port="source"><p:empty/></p:input>
    <p:input port="query">
      <p:inline>
        <c:data>
          &lt;html> &lt;body> &lt;ul> ... query here ... &lt;/ul> &lt;/body> &lt;/html>
        </c:data>
     </p:inline>
    </p:input>
    <p:input port="parameters">
      <p:empty/>
    </p:input>
  </p:xquery>

</p:declare-step>

Can you send me a pipeline that exhibits the problem?

                                        Be seeing you,
