Ah, right. At the moment there is no definitive way to do this in the
presence of named element and attribute groups. We're looking at ways
to fix this. If you _know_ no named groups were referenced in
building your schema, you can just go up the component hierarchy until you
find a targetNamespace. If you can go up the component hierarchy
using the xerces-j API.
