With this input, which AFAIK is already exclusively canonicalized:

<elt1></elt1>
</ns1:root>

I get this output:

<ns1:root xmlns:ns1="some:urn">
<elt1 xmlns=""></elt1>
</ns1:root>

Again - as I understand the specification, there's no need to declare the default namespace. But maybe I got this wrong, I'm new to Canonicalization.

I'll look into it. It could well be a bug in XOM.

OK. I think I've fixed it. Try the code in CVS and see if that solves your problem.
