It's listed as an error condition in XSLT 2.0 but not in XSLT 1.0.

However, there will be fewer and fewer people who bother to switch back to
a XSLT 1.0 processor just to run specific stylesheets, and since whether
the @priority is there or not doesn't matter to XSLT 1.0 processor, the
suggestion was to remove it to avoid potential confusion when people do
use a XSLT 2.0 processor on the stylesheets.
