After some experiment, I've come up with the following:
- The problem (no section headers with the section text) does not
occur with XalanC/stylesheets 1.48 and earlier
- The problem does occur with Xalan C and stylesheets 1.49 and
later.
- The problem does not occur with XalanJ or XSLTproc.
Unfortunately, I don't know enough about XSLT to understand how all
this fits together and where things go wrong.
Suggestions ?

I've been doing a lot of abstract painting lately, extremely
abstract. No brush, no paint, no canvas, I just think about it.
