That's usually a sign that the namespace declaration was needed,
because exclude-result-prefixes only takes effect for namespace
declarations that were safe to omit, and it's really for use with
literal result elements (LREs). Part 2 of my developerWorks article
on namespaces at
http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/library/x-nmspace2.html
steps through the different ways to rename elements while "copying"
them from source to result, and may give you additional ideas.
