Pfft! Brainfart alert!
the stochastic (Ito) differential equation

dX1 = a X2 dt
dX2 = -a X1 dt

implies

d(X1^2 + X2^2) = a^2 (X1^2 + X2^2) dt

should be
dX1 = X2 (a dt + s dz1)
dX2 = X1(- a dt + s dz2)

implies

d(X1^2 + X2^2) = a^2 s^2 (X1^2 + X2^2) dt + X1 X2(s1 dz1 + s2 dz2)

Same conclusion, more complicated formulas.
