Using MSXML3 you get:

<foo xmlns="blah"><bar /></foo>

If you use the "namespace" attribute on an xsl:element like this:
     <xsl:element name="foo" namespace="blah">
       <bar/>
     </xsl:element>

Then you get:

<foo xmlns="blah"><bar xmlns="" /></foo>


With Saxon the results are, respectively:

<foo xmlns="blah"><bar/></foo>

and

<foo xmlns="blah"><bar/></foo>

I guess this is a bug in MSXML3, and also that it is preferrable to use the
"namespace" attribute of xsl:element.
