xsltproc --maxvars

  This is my first post here. I am not sure if this is the
  right place to ask about the xsltproc utility.

  When I try to set maxvars, e.g.

ernad@trabbi:~$ xsltproc --maxvars 1000000 ~/test.xslt.xml ~/test.xml 
warning: failed to load external entity "1000000"
cannot parse 1000000

  It seems like xsltproc is thinking the argument value is a file. As
  I read the documentation, it should be a number. I am puzzled.

  I run on Debian. Here is my version information

ernad@trabbi:~$ xsltproc -V
Using libxml 20901, libxslt 10128 and libexslt 817
xsltproc was compiled against libxml 20901, libxslt 10128 and libexslt 817
libxslt 10128 was compiled against libxml 20901
libexslt 817 was compiled against libxml 20901
