Xalan-J accepts a string as the second argument of the document() function.

That appears to be correct. When two arguments are provided, "the base URI (see 
[3.2 Base URI]) of the node in the second argument node-set that is first in 
document order is used as the base URI for resolving the relative URI into an 
absolute URI."

The equivalent wording in the XSLT 2.0 working draft -- more specifically, in 
the Functions and Operators document shared with the XQuery WD -- currently says 
"It is a dynamic error if $srcval2 is the empty sequence, or a sequence whose 
first item is not a node, unless all the URIs in $srcval1 are absolute URIs. If 
$srcval2 is a sequence of more than one node, the effect is as if only the first 
node in the sequence were supplied."

So, yes, the second argument should be a sequence of one or more nodes, not a 
literal string. Subtle. Good catch.
