Description

An NPE occurs when compiling the following stylesheet:

<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
    xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
    xmlns:map="http://www.w3.org/2005/xpath-functions/map"
    xmlns:my="http://www.example.com/xslt/fcn"
    exclude-result-prefixes="xs map"
    version="3.0">
    
    <xsl:template match="/">
        <xsl:variable name="map1" as="map(*)" select="map{'a':1}"/>
        <xsl:variable name="map2" as="map(*)" select="map{'b':2}"/>
        <!-- 2nd argument in map:merge() here compiles successfully. -->
        <xsl:sequence select="map:merge(($map1,$map2),map{'key-type':'string'})"/>
    </xsl:template>
    
    <xsl:function name="my:myfcn" as="map(*)">
        <xsl:variable name="map1" as="map(*)" select="map{'a':1}"/>
        <xsl:variable name="map2" as="map(*)" select="map{'b':2}"/>

The problem occurs because, during static analysis, the value of the options parameter is examined without first being normalized (normalization would insert a default value for the "duplicates" option).

Work-around: add an explicit value for "duplicates" in the options parameter.

The code had already been corrected on the development branch.
