Summary: XMLWriter attribute ns declaration

Initial Comment:

In startElementNS of XMLGenerator (in saxutils,
revision 1.29), there's
 
name = prefix + ':' + name[1]
self._out.write(' xmlns:%s=%s' % (prefix,
     quoteattr(name[0])))

This effectively sets the URI in the namespace
declaration to the first character of the chosen prefix.

To fix, one could either change it to

nsURI = name[0]
name = prefix + ";" + name[1]
self._out.write(' xmlns:%s=%s' % (prefix,
      quoteattr(nsURI)))

or one could re-name the 'name' variable appropriately.

Cheers,
