I'm afraid it might be the other way around... Stefan's original PDF
consistently uses the xap namespace prefix and iText inserts an element
using the xmp namespace prefix without defining it.
PdfStamperImp.close() sets the ModifyDate like this:

Looking at XmpReader.add() I see:

Thus, xmpr.add("rdf:Description", "http://ns.adobe.com/xap/1.0/";,
"xmp:ModifyDate", date.getW3CDate()); actually searches for a
"rdf:Description" node which has, as an attribute, a namespace definition
for "http://ns.adobe.com/xap/1.0/";, and then it inserts a "xmp:ModifyDate"
element ignoring the prefix actually defined for that namespace.
Unless the prefixes to use are fixed in the context of XMP and are required
to be defined in the "rdf:Description" node, this smells very buggy.
