Confirmed. But there are several workarounds: Use <xsl:element> for the
literal output. Or use "xsl:" for the literal output and e.g. "x:" for
the real stylesheet.

However, xsltproc claims to fully support xsl:namespace-alias
(see /usr/share/doc/xsltproc/FEATURES.gz), so I guess, it's really a
bug.
