[xmlsec] xpath question

Hi Aleksy,

I've been working with the interoperability if you remember, and I hit a
brick wall, I think it may be due to my lacking of understanding exactly how
your or LibXml's xpath works when searching for a Reference in a document.
Below is the document, where I'm searching for
<<<<<<<

          <Reference URI="#Id-dcfe14b7-f2e6-4869-8614-b7d8718115ae">
            <DigestMethod
Algorithm="http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#sha1"/>
            <DigestValue>p7Jp5FT3yGu545BSbdYKHkNxdzk=</DigestValue>
          </Reference>

>>>>>>

which is located outside of the tag that contains all of the signature
information

<<<<<<

<soap:Body xmlns:wsu="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2002/07/utility"
wsu:Id="Id-dcfe14b7-f2e6-4869-8614-b7d8718115ae">
    <Call
xmlns="http://asp.asp.cornell.edu/cgi-bin/rmc24/arithmeticsecure.cgi">
      <sleep_for>1</sleep_for>
      <y>3</y>
      <x>4</x>
    </Call>
  </soap:Body>

>>>>>>

I think that may be the problem.  Because if I move the body to a place
inside of the <Signature> element tag, it finds the reference fine.  Can you
think of anything that I could look at in order to get the context to start
looking at the root node of the document

<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">


Thanks so much, below is the error I get, and the document I'm trying to
verify.

Below is the document soapreq.  There is a lot of stuff in there, but in
particular the Reference to the Soap:Body is what I'm interested in solving.
