Bug#470823: libsaxonb-java: fn:replace() does not work as expected

[Jakub Wilk]

Package: libsaxonb-java
Version: 9.0-3
Severity: normal

replace("abracadabra", "bra", "*") returns "abracada*", but according to 
[1] it should return "a*cada*":

$ cat buggy.xsl
<xsl:stylesheet version='2.0' xmlns:xsl='http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform'>
   <xsl:output method='text'/>
   <xsl:template match='/'>
     <xsl:value-of select='replace("abracadabra", "bra", "*")'/>
   </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

$ cat index.xml
<root/>

$ java -cp /usr/share/java/saxonb.jar net.sf.saxon.Transform index.xml buggy.xsl; echo
abracada*
