I don't know whether you're talking about minidom or 4DOM, but both work
for me in at least 0.8.0 and 0.8.3. If I take your example <schema>
root element and insert:

  <a/>
  <xsd:b/>

I can retrieve either element using getElementsByTagNameNS.

Can you give more example context/code, where an unexpected result occurs?
