DOMWriter doesn't perform namespace fixup even if documentation says so

           Summary: DOMWriter doesn't perform namespace fixup even if
                    documentation says so
           Product: Xerces-C++
           Version: 2.2.0
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: DOM
        AssignedTo: xerces-c-dev@xml.apache.org
        ReportedBy: alby@exceloncorp.com


If we have an XML file like this

<a:root xmlns:a="http://www.example.org">
  <a:item/>
</a:root>

and we parse it (with namespace support on), then call

DOMWriter* writer = DOMImplementation::getImplementation()->createDOMWriter();
XMLCh* serializedForm=writer->writeToString(*node);

where "node" points to the <a:item> node, the resulting string is this invalid 
XML:

<a:item/>

instead of the expected

<a:item xmlns:a="http://www.example.org"/>

I am attaching a patch that should implement the namespace fixup
