Where would the mode be specified so that the correct variable definition
would be picked up?

> The following works fine with Saxon, but fails with Xalan
because xalan implements XSLT 1.0 but saxon implements 1.1 which
unfortunately allows this behaviour even in a 1.0 stylesheet.
Don't do
<xsl:variable name="NODES">
<Nodes>
<xsl:apply-templates select="Product" mode="Count"/>
</Nodes>
</xsl:variable>
do
<xsl:variable name="NODES" select="Product" mode="Count"/>
then in any XSLT system you will be able to do
<xsl:value-of select="count($NODES//Product)"/>
