Apologies for wild speculation here, but one case I have seen myself (wrt. sample svg documents) is the use of default attribute value definition to provide the default namespace declaration.
This seems like a convoluted thing to me, but is legal as per xml & xml namespaces specs; and such a test is part of XMLTest test suite.
Similarly one can provide default namespace bindings for explicit prefixes.
Could this be what brings in the broken default namespace declaration?
