xsl element namespace prefix
Problem solved. Thanks to George and Michael for the help.  Final
stylesheet is thus:

<xsl:template match="node() | @*">


     <xsl:copy>
       <xsl:apply-templates select="node() | @*"/>
     </xsl:copy>



</xsl:template>
   <!-- matches elements -->


<xsl:template match="*">
  <xsl:element name="foo:{local-name()}"
namespace="http://www.myFoo.org/">
    <xsl:copy-of select="text()|@*"/>
    <xsl:apply-templates/>
  </xsl:element>
</xsl:template>

xsl:copy-of will only create an exact copy. To create a modified copy,
you need to recursively walk the document modifying each element as
necessary.
Something like this:

<xsl:template match="*">
  <xsl:element name="{local-name()}" namespace="(new namespace)">
    <xsl:copy-of select="@*"/>
    <xsl:apply-templates/>
  </xsl:element>
</xsl:template>

Note also that you should be thinking in first of the expanded-name of
the elements (that is, their namespace URI and local-name) - the
prefixes and namespace declarations will follow.
