What do you mean by bogus error here?
According to the namespaces spec
(http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml-names/#ns-qualnames)
*********************
Namespace Constraint: Leading "XML"
Prefixes beginning with the three-letter sequence x, m, l, in any case
combination, are reserved for use by XML and XML-related specifications.
*********************
So I would expect any conformant XML parser to throw an error for a
namespace declaration like
xmlns:xml='http://www.w3.org/xml/1998/namespace'.
I just confirmed that MSXML30 SP3 throws an error in this case.

Will this release also fix the bogus error if you declare
xmlns:xml='http://www.w3.org/xml/1998/namespace', i.e. the correct
value?
