This output contains a redundant namespace declaration for SOAP-ENV on
the Header element. I would expect most decent XSLT processors to avoid
outputting redundant namespace declarations, but it is not actually an
error since the two documents are equivalent, and it is not something
you can control. Which processor are you using?
