When a namespace is declared in an XSL document how does this translate to
XSL pattern matching? What happens when a prefix is associated with one
namespace uri in the XSL document and a different uri in the XML document
being transformed. What happens when the XML document uses the same prefix
for different uris at different places in the source tree?

e.g.
	<xsl:stylesheet ... xmlns:mime="urn:1">
	<xsl:template match="mime:body">...

with a source document

<mime:message xmlns:mime="urn:2">
<mime:body>
	<contents xmlns:mime="urn:3">
		<mime:body>1234456
		</mime:body>
	</contents>
</mime:body>
