XML attributes have wrong name

Hello,

I have a class with a lot of 'setter' methods and a toXML() method
which creates a bunch of elements, attributes, and text nodes from those
variables.

The problem is all the attribute names get munged.

root = self.doc.createElement("Node")
root.setAttribute("type","foo")

turns into

<Node y="foo">

I'm using python RedHat 7.3/python 2.2.3.
