AW: WG: How to reorder an XML tree?

Sorry for not being precise.
Yes "b" should always moved to "d", the rest should remain the same. For my
problem it makes no difference for "b" being the first or the last child.

In the meantime I came to a solution. I think it's quite complicated.
Perhaps it should be possible to make it shorter. Especially the definition
of the xsl:key is a problem. I didn't manage to get 
			<xsl:template match="match="id('b')">
work. What am I doing wrong?
Thank you for your help!
