The advice to use exclude-result-prefixes was wrong. The e-r-p attribute
only affects namespaces copied from the stylesheet when a literal result
element is evaluated. You are copying the HTML element from the source
document, and the saxon namespace must be copied from there. I've no idea
why anyone would want to declare the saxon namespace in a source document,
but I think that's what must be happening.

In XSLT 2.0 you can do xsl:copy without copying namespaces by adding the
attribute copy-namespaces="no" to the xsl:copy or xsl:copy-of element.
