I finished the namespace-unawareness implementation by replacing all 
QNames in NodeTests by *[local-name()='nodename'], except if the QName's 
localPart is "*".

I don't know what I should do in such a case, especially if the QName 
has a prefix, e.g. foo:*. Would *[local-name()='*'] be valid? Currently, 
if we hit foo:*, we simply replace it by *.

Oh, and, it's all nicely integrated in the trunk now... :)
