namespaces declarations are not attributes to xpath, they don't show up
in @* and they can't be created by xsl:attribute.

There is a discussion of this in the faq, but in this case your easiest
solution is to stick and attriiute msxml:anything="" on the
xsl:stylesheet element. This will be ignored by XSLT running the output,
but will cause the XSLT generating the output to add a suitable
namespace declaration to support the attribute name.
