[xml] xmllint, xinclude, and namespaces



Consider this:

[spqr-ibm]/tmp:cat x.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<a xmlns="http://www.tei-c.org/ns/1.0";>
 <include href="a.xml" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"/>
</a>

[spqr-ibm]/tmp:cat a.xml
<p>vide</p>


[spqr-ibm]/tmp:xmllint --xinclude x.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<a xmlns="http://www.tei-c.org/ns/1.0";>
 <p>vide</p>
</a>

Surely the result should show an empty namespace on the
include <p>?

xsltproc gets it right. If I run an identity transform with --xinclude, I get

<a xmlns="http://www.tei-c.org/ns/1.0";>
  <p xmlns="">vide</p>
</a>
