RE: RE: how XSL processor treat doctype declaration in

As I think I pointed out in response to another similar question, the SVG
DTD sneakily changes the default namespace for the SVG elements by including
a default value for the xmlns attribute.

Try an xsl:copy-of on the whole document to see what the actual namespaces
are.
