Namespaces are *not* disabled in Standard Edition.

This is an excerpt of the on-line help:
---
XXE is not namespace aware for a document using a DTD as its grammar.

Being not namespace aware means that xmlns attributes are treated as
ordinary attributes with no special semantics. All element and
attributes names (except xml:space, xml:lang, xml:base which belong to
the "http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace"; namespace) have no namespace.
Names like "foo:bar" are allowed.

A DTD is considered to be a grammar if it defines at least one element
type. That is, a DTD only declaring entities is not considered to be a
grammar.

May be you have found a bug? Have you an example with xml:base where XXE
didn't behave properly?

The support of "xml:base": no. Sorry. (In general this means that we do
not understand the importance of the feature, yet).
