[issue5027] xml namespace not understood by xml.sax.saxutils.XMLGenerator

[Antoine Pitrou]

Antoine Pitrou <pitrou at free.fr> added the comment:

According to http://www.w3.org/TR/xml-names/:

“The prefix xml is by definition bound to the namespace name http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace. It MAY, but need not, be declared, and MUST NOT be bound to any other namespace name. Other prefixes MUST NOT be bound to this namespace name, and it MUST NOT be declared as the default namespace.”

The patch looks good to me.
