Are you sure the DOM tree is a fully namespace-aware Level 2 DOM, built
using createElementNS/createAttributeNS? The non-namespace-aware nodes are
considered obsolete except for backward compatability with DOM Level 1
applications, and modern applications often don't bother to try to process
them. I believe Xalan does explicitly require a namespace-aware DOM as its
input.
Does it have all the required namespace declaration attributes? Xalan used
to require they be present; I'm not sure whether it still does.
