XSV handling of other-namespace attributes

Hi,

I'm trying to add a non-XML Schema attribute (oth:desc) to an element
declaration.  XSV is not acting the way I would expect.  It is oddly trying
to dereference the target namespace (not the namespace mapped to "oth"), and
giving an error when it can't.  When I remove the oth:desc attribute, it
works fine.  Is this a bug?

Thanks,
Priscilla 



Schema (http://www.priscilla.walmsley.com/slroot.xsd):
<xsd:schema xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
 		xmlns="tns"
   		targetNamespace="tns" 
		xmlns:oth="otherns">

<xsd:element name="x" type="xsd:string" oth:desc="xdesc"/>

</xsd:schema>

Instance (http://www.priscilla.walmsley.com/slroot.xml):
<x xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
   xsi:schemaLocation="tns slroot.xsd"
   xmlns="tns">test</x>


Error message:
Error: can't retrieve "http://www.priscilla.walmsley.com/tns": 404 Object
