Description

Another OASIS test suite discrepancy. This time libxslt agrres with Xalan, but on reflection I think the test case is correct and Xalan and libxslt are wrong.

The test case is:

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

<!-- Purpose: Test case for bug 70935 -->

<xsl:output method="xml" encoding="UTF-8" omit-xml-declaration="yes" indent="yes"/>

<xsl:template match="/">
<test><xsl:copy-of select="document('')/xsl:stylesheet/namespace::xsl"/></test>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

The expected output is:

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

The actual output is

<test>
</test>

The namespace node has not been copied.
