Good catch! This was exactly the problem. The doc read from disk had a
DTD and namespace whereas the one built from scratch didn't. Hence the
unqualified searches worked for the latter but not the former. Many
thanks! It's nice when things make sense :) BTW, thanks also for
xmlXPathDebugDumpObject() - it sure makes debugging easier to quickly
see the result set.
