Un-prefixed attributes are incorrectly put in the default namespace.

           Summary: Un-prefixed attributes are incorrectly put in the
                    default namespace.

When transforming to a DOM, attributes with no prefix are assigned the URI of 
the default namespace. Section 5.2 of http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml-
names/#scoping-defaulting states:
A default namespace is considered to apply to the element where it is declared 
(if that element has no namespace prefix), and to all elements with no prefix 
within the content of that element. .... Note that default namespaces do not 
apply directly to attributes.

Modifying the four argument variant of "DOMServices::getNamespaceForPrefix" @ 
line 806 so that it reads:
if (theColonIndex == theLength)
{
        clear(thePrefix);
        if (isAttribute == true)
        {
                return 0;
        }
        else
        {
                return thePrefixResolver.getNamespaceForPrefix(s_emptyString);
        }
}
fixes the problem for me.
