Missing xmlns attribut, when serializing element with namespace

           Summary: Missing xmlns attribut, when serializing element with
                    namespace
           Product: Xerces2-J
           Version: 2.2.1
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows NT/2K
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: DOM
        AssignedTo: xerces-j-dev@xml.apache.org
        ReportedBy: frode-mjos.johnsen@edbtelesciences.com


When running the following program:
import org.w3c.dom.*;
import javax.xml.parsers.*;
import org.apache.xml.serialize.*;
public class XercesTest{
	public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception	{
      DocumentBuilderFactory dbf = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
      dbf.setNamespaceAware(true);
      DocumentBuilder db = dbf.newDocumentBuilder();
      Document doc = db.newDocument();
      Element elem = doc.createElementNS("test/namespace", "test");
      elem.setPrefix("tst");
      doc.appendChild(elem);
      XMLSerializer xs = new XMLSerializer(System.out, null);
      xs.serialize(doc);
	}
}

under Xerces-J 2.2.1 (xercesImpl.jar + xml-apis.jar) the result is: 
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<tst:test/>

which is wrong.

When running with Xerces-J 2.0.1 (xerces.jar) the result is:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<tst:test xmlns:tst="test/namespace"/>

which is correct.
