That's exactly the point. the XML namespaces rec could be written defining a meaning for the previously undefined xmlns attribute because _existing parsers_ written _before_ xml namespaces became a recommendation would parse that attribute without error. If parsers were allowed to barf on these reserved names then every time another name that is "reserved for future use" actually got used, every parser on the planet would have to be updated, which would mean, practically speaking, that non of the reserved names would ever be used, the cost would be too high.
