Cannot bind "http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace" to a prefix other than "xml"

           Summary: Cannot bind "http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace" to a
                    prefix other than "xml"
           Product: Xerces2-J
           Version: 2.2.0
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Blocker
          Priority: Other
         Component: Other
        AssignedTo: xerces-j-dev@xml.apache.org
        ReportedBy: dims@yahoo.com


To recreate the problem, just run "java dom.Writer ns.xml". I get the following
error:
[Fatal Error] ns.xml:6:69: The prefix "xml" cannot be bound to any namespace
other than its usual namespace; neither can the namespace for "xml" be bound to
any prefix other than "xml".

Where does it say (in any spec) that this is an error? How can i keep namespace
support but not run into this problem? 

I can also recreate the problem using the following code. FYI, This problem does
not show up with the parser that is in JDK14.
        DocumentBuilderFactory factory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
        factory.setNamespaceAware(true);
        DocumentBuilder builder = factory.newDocumentBuilder();
        System.out.println("Parsing : " + args[0]);
        Document doc = builder.parse(new File(args[0]));

Thanks,
dims
