Bug#518433: XALANJ-2430 - Xalan 2.7.1 won't compile an xslt when a recursive template is used in a global variable.

[Chris Cheney]

Package: libxalan2-java
Version: 2.7.1-2
Severity: grave
Tags: upstream

http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XALANJ-2430

This bug affects the ability for OpenOffice.org to at minimum load/save
to mediawiki, xhtml, office 2003 xml formats, all of which I have seen
bug reports about. And it probably breaks many other programs that use
xalan as well.

It appears the only easy solution at present is to downgrade
libxalan2-java to 2.7.0, otherwise every xsl that is affected has to be
modified to work.

Thanks,

Chris Cheney
