Hi David,
I don't think that will work. Unlike attributes in attribute-sets, a global
param like section.autolabel is evaluated only once, before any templates
are applied.
However, this hack works:
<xsl:template match="preface/section" mode="object.title.markup">
<xsl:apply-templates select="." mode="title.markup"/>
</xsl:template>
The 'object.title.markup' mode is used to generate the title. Normally the
mode="object.title.markup" looks up a gentext template for the title and
then fills in the number and title. Because section numbers are turned on,
the gentext template includes %n for the section number. This specialized
version short circuits that process and just generates the title.

I think this would do it:
<xsl:param name="section.autolabel">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="ancestor::preface">0</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>1</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:param>
