Wow.   That's really strange.   The code around there specifically checks a 
.equals on the qnames, but the above message makes it sound like the two are 
equal.  Strange.

That said, a wrapper element should be namespace qualified which the above 
doesn't have.  

Have you looked into the CXF transformation features?
http://cxf.apache.org/docs/transformationfeature.html

it can handle some basic element renaming and namespace mapping and such.   You 
may be able to get the service to accept the original Axis1 requests 
automatically and not really need a proxy.
