XForms validation using bind

Hi All

I'm trying to work out a way to validate fields in an xforms:repeat.
For example (simple example):
I might have something like this:
<Person>
   <FirstName/>
   <Surname/>
</Person>

Person can be repeated using an xforms:repeat.
My problem is that I need to validate that if a FirstName is entered for the
Person, then their Surname must also be entered.

I thought of doing this with a bind, but if this xml structure is used within
an xforms:repeat, then how can I say that Person[1] has filled in a
FirstName[1] and so Surname[1] is mandatory?

Thanks in advance,
Martin
