That's the URL for the xml prefix. Not sure how it started getting used for
the default namespace. The parser did, perhaps a little unconventionally,
assign a proprietary URL to the global namespace, if I remember correctly.
There wasn't one defined for it, and it didn't make any sense for it not to
map to something (since otherwise all code would have to special case for
it), so we mapped it to some internally used URL. Perhaps that was what this
was doing originally and somehow it got changed to another URL?
