Description

When a SaplingElement is created, with a no-namespace element name, it is given a NamespaceMap containing the namespace binding xmlns="". As the documentation for class NamespaceMap makes clear, the map should never contain any namespace undeclarations.

The consequence is that when the SaplingElement is serialised, a spurious xmlns="" may appear in the serialised output.

The SaplingElement is used in the implementation of the sql:query extension instruction, and the bug manifests itself as incorrect output for test case sql-005.
