Namespace attribute passed to root element

Having a problem!
Here's my stylesheet:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:transform xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:go="http:/go"
version="1.0">
<xsl:template match="whatever">
<foo>
...
</foo>
</xsl:template>
The XML result document looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<foo xmlns:go="http:/go">
...
</foo>
Why is this namespace attribute automatically passed to the root element of
my result document? How can I stop this from happening? The input document
requires this namespace, but the prefix is not used in the output document,
and the foo element does not have a xmlns:go attribute, so the parse fails.
I'm using xalan 1.0.1
Thanks,
