casting xs:decimal to xs:int

Michael, it might well be that this is conform to the spec, but I thought the spec has changed recently on this matter. If not compliant with the spec it might well be a known or documented limitation. The following works xs:integer(1.234) but xs:int(1.234) fails with "Cannot convert decimal to xs:int" similar for xs:float and xs:double arguments. Thanks, Marc

There are some outstanding comments on the spec in this area, but I think it's fairly clear that the intent is as described in F+O section 17.8.4, and I'll change Saxon to match.
