It appears the issue is with the first character in the attribute step being the underscore (ajaxslt engine only; Firefox native engine seems fine). Removing the underscore causes the issue to go away.

I originally reproduced the issue using the IDE with a slightly older version of Core. Updating to the more recent snapshot, the issue has gone away, probably due to some ajaxslt fixes. So I don't deserve the credit here. :)
