By using an XSLT 2.0 processor -- Xalan is strictly 1.0, see
<http://xml.apache.org/xalan-j/> -- or by using an XSLT 1.0 stylesheet
that doesn't try to use a 2.0 construct like #all.
Especially since #all is a keyword for _modes_, not prefixes; if you've
got something in your code where a namespace prefix starts with an
octothorpe (#) that's not going to work anywhere, prefixes can have the
characters of the Name production except for the colon (:). Name
production start characters don't include #.
