The realisation of sorting seems to be buggy in xslt extension. Let's suppose that we have the following xml:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<root>
  <node id="1"></node>
  <node id="4"></node>
  <node id="2"></node>
  <node id="3"></node>
</root>

We're processing these data via xslt_process(). Here's the part of xsl file:

...
<xsl:template match="/root">
  <xsl:for-each select="node">
    <xsl:sort select="@id" data-type="number" />
    ...
  </xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
...

It works ok. But if we remove data-type attribute from <xsl:sort> tag or change it to "text", the PHP crashes.

The problem remains. ??? php doesn't crash now, but seems to hang or something like this. The page doesn't load, and the system becomes overloaded until the Apache process is killed (PHP runs as ISAPI module).

Please provide a short and self-contained example which
causes the crash.

XML file (test.xml):

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<root>
  <node id="3" />
  <node id="1" />
  <node id="2" />
  <node id="4" />
</root>

XSL-template (test.xsl):

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet
	xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
	version="1.0">

<xsl:template match="/root">
	<xsl:for-each select="node">
		<xsl:sort select="@id" data-type="text" />
		<xsl:value-of select="@id" />
	</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

PHP script which causes the crash:

<?PHP

	$xslt = xslt_create ();

	xslt_set_base ($xslt, sprintf ('file://%s/', dirname ($_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME'])));
	print (xslt_process ($xslt, 'test.xml', 'test.xsl'));

	xslt_free ($xslt);

?>

Are you able to reproduce this with the sabcmd utility that comes with Sablotron?
