Problem with XPath namespace axis?

I'm having a problem with Xalan Java 2.7.0. The XPath expression:
document('')/xsl:stylesheet/namespace::exsl
does not seem to be doing the right thing.

Processing this file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<root2/>

With this stylesheet:
<?xml version='1.0'?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:exsl="http://exslt.org/common"
version='1.0'>

<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:element name="root">
<xsl:copy-of select="document('')/xsl:stylesheet/namespace::exsl"/>
</xsl:element>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

Produces:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><root/>

The correct output (produced by xsltproc) should be:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<root xmlns:exsl="http://exslt.org/common"/>

Info on my Configuration is below:

Am I doing something wrong? Is this a bug? Is there a workaround?

I was going to create a JIRA report, but the Xalan site said to post to
the users list first.

Thanks,

Sean
