The are two problems:
(1) the result of x() gets does not get copied into the result node, but 
is instead referenced "by reference".
(2) the code for $x/b does not handle name-matching children "by reference".

Either might fix the problem.  Probably both should be changed.  (It 
will be difficult to implement the parent:: axis unless (1) is changed.)

I'm working on the problem.
