  child::ns:node2='test'
but you need to have the namespace prefix 'ns' defined in the
XPath context. In XSLT it's inherited from the node containing
the XPath expression. Outside XSLT there is no specification defining
this. The API is 

http://xmlsoft.org/html/libxml-xpathInternals.html#xmlXPathRegisterNs

to register a namespace to an XPath evaluation context.
