Validation error with fixed attributes

Using the latest Xerces (Xerces1, I believe) out of CVS, the following
document is report as invalid:

test.xml:

<!DOCTYPE doc SYSTEM "doc.dtd">
<doc>
<test/>
</doc>

doc.dtd:

<!ELEMENT doc (test+)>

<!ENTITY % simple-xlink.att
        'xmlns:xlink            CDATA   #FIXED
                                        "http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"
        xlink:type              CDATA   #FIXED "simple" '>

<!ELEMENT test EMPTY>
<!ATTLIST test
	%simple-xlink.att;
>

Xerces reports:

Error:test.xml:3:Undeclared prefix: "xlink:type".

                                        Be seeing you,
                                          norm
