conflicting template rules

[Schlee Stefan <ssch at ticon dot at>]

The standard states rules for resolution of conflicts between template rules
to which different priorities can be assigned or 
template rules which are imported (included) from different sources into the
same XSLT file. What I miss are rules for resovling 
the conflict that arises if two or more template rules are specified in the
same XSLT with exactly the same priority, for example:

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

<xsl:template match="USERLIST">
   <test1>XXX</test1>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="USERLIST">
   <test2>YYY</test2>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

xalan only outputs the "test2" element. Is this behaviour covered by the
standard or is it parser specific.

Thank you for your help
