Have you tried the namespace aware version of setAttribute?

  var XLINKNS = "http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink";;
  newUseTag.setAttributeNS(XLINKNS, "type", "simple"); 

Also, some attributes cannot be changed dynamically. Then you can recreate
the element and replace it with the old one.

Cheers,

Martin
