Ok, I get it. Binding the XHTML namespace to the html prefix lets me  
match with html:font. The document I'm processing now has the XHTML  
namespace as the default, whereas the other documents I've been  
working with had no namespace.

It really sucks that I can't assign a default namespace in my  
stylesheet.
