Description

I have an HTML document like

<!doctype html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>Test</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <h2>h2 1</h2>
    <h2 class=foo>h2 2</h2>
  </body>
</html>

that I try to process with SaxonCS 11.5 query from the command line with e.g. 'C:\Program Files\Saxonica\SaxonCS-11.5\SaxonCS.exe' query -qversion:4.0 -qs:"xquery version '4.0'; saxon:parse-html(unparsed-text('test1.html'))//*:h2[contains(@class, 'foo')]" --allowSyntaxExtensions:on !indent=yes.

That gives a NullReferenceException (after the output of the XML declaration<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>):

System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Fatal error during query: NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
Exiting with code 2

I can't test it directly with 12.0 as that has that (I think known) bug not being able to resolve the file name/relative file path given in -qs.

I will later test in an .xq file with 12.0.
