and Saxon 6.5.2 and msxsl come up with nothing.

Correctly


If I substitute @src:key, then I get an error for an
undeclared namespace.

Yes, because you haven't declared src in your stylesheet.


How can I select the value of the src:key attribute
correctly?

By adding the namespace declaration in your stylesheet.


An example is below (note that the prefix is immaterial).

I hope this helps.
