That is a XOM error message. I suspect it's having trouble resolving a 
relative URL. Note that this has nothing to do with namespaces. It 
simply needs to load a DTD or piece thereof from a URL, and the URL 
isn't giving it enough information to do so. Or at least I think that's 
what's happening. I'm still digging.
