Sorry I didn't catch this change earlier, but I think the change made to
not add an attribute with a : in its name when no namespace is found is
incorrect. The change I am referring to is rev 1.366 of tree.c:
/*
* If we get a QName and the prefix has no namespace-
* binding in scope, then this is an error.
* TODO: Previously this falled-back to non-ns handling.
* Should we revert this?
*/
return(NULL);
A colon is a legal character for an attribute name. Although not where
this issue cropped up and why I didn't catch it before, take DOM for
example. For DOM level 1 where there is no namespace support, the
attribute should be added to the document with the colon in its name.
I think this should be reverted.
