I am asking myself whether there is an error in the SPARQL grammar for typed RDFLiterals:

I think it's just a case of poor naming :) See below.

Now, when I look at SPARQL's grammar I find:

SPARQL: http://www.w3.org/TR/rdf-sparql-query/

 RDFLiteral ::= String ( LANGTAG | ( '^^' IRIref ) )?

 IRI_REF ::= '<' ([^<>"{}|^`\]-[#x00-#x20])* '>'

IRIref != IRI_REF

The relevant rule is

http://www.w3.org/TR/rdf-sparql-query/#rIRIref

which reads:

[67]            IRIref            ::=           IRI_REF | PrefixedName


So I believe this is correct.

Note: No qnames are allowed here in the type position, although
      qnames like xs:integer *are* actually used for typed literals in
      the examples in the SPARQL document.

I assume this is a bug?
