>Same answer:

<Revision><Number><xsl:value-of select="$OtherSource[position()]"/></Number></Revision>

Umm, no: it needs to be

<Revision><Number><xsl:variable name="pos" select="position()"/><xsl:value-of select="$OtherSource[$pos]"/></Number></Revision>

because position() changes its value inside a predicate.
