Unfortunately I don't think our xml tasks allow for extensions (which is what you are trying to do). This means you can use namespaces, but not namespaces which are extensions, like xpath functions written in assemblies. You could provide a patch to allow this, but it may be more work than you want to do.
I would suggest you remove any functions by extension and try again. There are XPath 1.0 string functions, but I doubt there are any upper-case or lower-case built-in functions. You could fake it use the translate function, but that is probably pretty costly.
