Details:

Running the following code on the attached XHTML document (which validates)
produces the result "false". However, if the "xmlns" in the HTML tag is
removed or renamed (adding another 'x' to the beginning suffices) the query
returns true. Because my knowledge of XQuery, perhaps this is not an actual
bug but the result of some minutae in the specifications, but it seems very
peculiar and was very frustrating until it was discovered and does not seem
like it is correct to me.

If this _is_ actually the _intended_ result  _any_ explanation, or link to
spec, or correction to the query, would be appreciated, but from all that I've
read and from my understanding of XQuery this should not happen.  

[code]
let $d := doc("xq_test.html")//p/text()
return $d = "pass"
[/code]
