duplicate element dsc in the same scope

["McEligot, Sean (contractor)" <Mc...@MTMC.ARMY.MIL>]

A little background: I have one xsd file that includes two others. Each of
those two files has an element of the same name. Two get around this I
defined the elements to be of different types. <element name="SameName"
type="SameNameTypeOne"> and <element name="SameName" type="SameNameTypeTwo">
(see below). This seems like it would be correct, but I get the following
message:
example.xml:2:108:2:109 Schema error: duplicate element decl in the same
scope : SameName.
example.xml:4:33:4:34 Datatype error: In element 'SameName' : Value '123'
does not match regular expression facet '[a-z]*'..
example.xml: 1360 ms (5 elems, 1 attrs, 9 spaces, 6 chars)

Can someone tell me if this is my fault or an xerces bug, and suggest a way
to fix this or a better way to do it?

Thanks,
Sean


Here is an example to duplicate this behaivor:

=== example.xml ===
 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Example xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation='example.xsd'>
	<One> <SameName>abc</SameName> </One>
	<Two> <SameName>123</SameName> </Two>
</Example>

=== example.xsd ===
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<schema xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema'>
 
<include schemaLocation="one.xsd" />
<include schemaLocation="two.xsd" />

 <element name="Example">
  <complexType>
   <sequence>
     <element ref="One" minOccurs='0' maxOccurs='unbounded'/>
     <element ref="Two" minOccurs='0' maxOccurs='unbounded'/>
   </sequence>
  </complexType>
 </element>

</schema>

=== one.xsd ===
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<schema xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema'>
 
 <element name="One">
  <complexType>
   <sequence>

   </sequence>
  </complexType>
 </element>
 <simpleType name="SameNameTypeOne">
  <restriction base="string">
   <pattern value="[a-z]*" />
  </restriction>
 </simpleType>

</schema>

=== two.xsd ===
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
