Hi,

I have a schema which has an xs:all construct. XML files written

Schemas validity error : Element 'x:a' [CT local]: The element
content is not valid.

A minimal schema/XML file pair illustrating the problem is below -
using 'xmllint --schema test.xsd test.xml' illustrates teh error
message. I think the problem is related to namespaces, because the XML
validates against the schema if the targetNamespace attribute is
removed (and the namespace declaration/prefixes removed from the
elements in the XML)

Yes, exactly, its related to namespaces; good that you put a finger on
it. It is one of the TODOs, since it needs additional help from the
regex engine. A leftover from the enabling of namespace awareness of the
content model validation.

Is this a bug in libxml2 or am I doing something wrong? (My money's on
a bug, as the XML validates against the schema with XMLSpy, MSXML,
System.XML in .Net and Xalan :-)

Yes, the bug is definitely on libxml2's schema processor side :-(
Feel free to bugzilla it [1].

OK - I'd assumed it was a regression, as 2.6.11 appeared to correctly
validate the files (and fail validation when the element content was
malformed).

I'll enter it into Bugzilla.
