Description

The XML Schema Validator in the OpenJDK contains a bug in the validation of keys an keyrefs. It fails to find a missing match for a keyref. See https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8220818

I checked the example files with the Xerces2 Validator and it shows the same behavior as described in the OpenJDK bug.

The attached project reproduces the error with Xerces.
