This selects all the children nodes, unless the root node of the document
has a child called "SchemaVersion". A leading "/" always takes you up to the
root.

I think you want "node()[not(self::SchemaVersion)]"

Another alternative is to leave off the predicate, and define a template
rule for SchemaVersion that does nothing.
