I have seen the problem. It something I worried about at the time and
sure enough it has come back to bite me.

PropertySubType is actually defined like this

<xsd:element name="propertySubType" type="PropertySubTypeList" />
<xsd:simpleType name="PropertySubTypeList">
       <xsd:list itemType="PropertySubType"/> 	
 </xsd:simpleType>

So it looks like you can't use lists on enumeration facets that
contain whitespace because it will validate each token.
