xalan can not copy namespace prefix when using schema

this is my test.xml

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<ns:root xmlns:ns="something"
         xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
         xsi:schemaLocation="something test.xsd"
/>

and test.xsd

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<schema xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
         targetNamespace="something"
         xmlns:ns="something">

         <complexType name="root" />

         <element name="root" type="ns:root" />
</schema>

test.xslt

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
         xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
         xmlns:ns="something">
         <xsl:output method="xml" />
         <xsl:template match="ns:root">
                 <xsl:copy />
         </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

use:

$ xalan -validate -xsl test.xslt -in test.xml

I got

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><root xmlns:ns="something" 
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"/>

but I expect root element with "ns" namespace prefix.
After deleting schema information in test.xml, it works well. I got :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><ns:root xmlns:ns="something"/>

Is it a xalan bug ?

My xalan version:
$ xalan -v

Xalan version 1.10.0
Xerces version 2.7.0

OK, it turns out this is a bug in Xerces-C, because it's delivering bogus 
SAX2 events.

Please don't create a Jira issue for Xalan-C.  Instead, you can get the 
latest Xerces-C from the SVN repository to get the fix.  Make sure you get 
the 2.7 branch, rather than the 3.0 branch.

Thanks!

Definitely, although something very strange must be going on.

Can you please create a Jira issue and attach copies of the files?

     http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XALANC

I will try to take a look at this in the next couple of days.

Thanks!
