  Yes, I'm surprized it never got noticed ... This is fixed in CVS:

paphio:~/XML -> xmllint --noout tst.xml
tst.xml:3: error: Namespace prefix h of attribute bar is not defined
   <bar h:bar="main"/>
                    ^
paphio:~/XML ->

This allowed to spot an error in one of the regression tests too ...
  Thanks for the report,

Daniel
