I can't reproduce this. The stylesheet:

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
 xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">

<xsl:template match="/">
    <xsl:element name="foo" namespace="blah">
        <bar/>
    </xsl:element>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

when run against itself, produces the following output with Saxon 6.4.4:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><foo xmlns="blah"><bar
xmlns=""/></foo>

which is correct.
