Morbo says, bNamespaces do not work that way!b

Your XSLT processor is creating a correct XML-with-namespaces document.
 Your XML processor b whatever system is passing the inner element off b
ought to understand that there are namespace declarations in scope and
pass them as well.  Otherwise, you are likely to run into bigger
problems than just this one.
