I have fixed this.  I ended up with the following wording:

-----
A relative URI appearing in an xml:base attribute is resolved against the
base specified on the xml:base attribute appearing on the owning element's
nearest ancestor that has an xml:base attribute element.

A relative URI appearing in any other attribute value is resolved against
the base specified in the xml:base attribute appearing on the element owning
the attribute, if one exists, otherwise the xml:base attribute of the owning
element's nearest ancestor that has an xml:base attribute.
------

Do you find this clear (as well as correct :-)?
