Whoops, sorry again. I'll give a full example this time to avoid further
confusion.

In my example I reconciled on <a1> as well.

Of course.

The following code:

#include <libxml/tree.h>
#include <libxml/parser.h>

const xmlChar *input = "<?xml version='1.0'?>"
"<foo xmlns:foo='urn:test:mine'>"
"<p xmlns:bar='urn:test:mine'/>"
"<a1>"
"<a2 xmlns:bar='urn:test:OTHER'>"
"<foo:a3/>"
"</a2>"
"</a1>"
"</foo>";

int
main(int argc, char **argv) {
    xmlDocPtr doc;
    xmlNodePtr node;

    LIBXML_TEST_VERSION

    doc = xmlReadDoc(input, NULL, NULL, 0);
    node = doc->children->children->next;
    xmlUnlinkNode(node);
    xmlAddChild(doc->children->children, node);
    xmlReconciliateNs(doc, node);
    xmlDocFormatDump(stdout, doc, 1);
    xmlFreeDoc(doc);    
    xmlCleanupParser();

    return (0);
}

Creates the following output:

P:\libxml2-lab\vs-xml\test1\Debug>test1
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<foo xmlns:foo="urn:test:mine">
  <p xmlns:bar="urn:test:mine">
    <a1>
      <a2 xmlns:bar="urn:test:OTHER">
        <bar:a3/>
      </a2>
    </a1>
  </p>
</foo>
element a3: error : Reference to namespace 'bar' not in scope

Note that <bar:a3/> is in the wrong namespace now; the shadowed prefix is
detected by the debugXML.c module as well.

But don't bother, I'll fix this during the next days. The drawback will be,
that xmlReconciliateNs will loose performance, since it does currently not
try to check if a namespace is already declared in @tree's decendants. IOW:
it works for a single element-node, but not for a branch.

And: I'll try not to confuse you guys with incomplete examples the next time
;-)
