Better use a prefix instead of the default namespace:
 
 xmlns:d="http://docbook.org/ns/docbook";

Use the above prefix in all your match attributes:

  <xsl:template match="d:sect1/d:sect1[@*]">

By the way: The above template will never match. DocBook does not allow to 
insert a sect1 into a sect1. Did you mean sect2 for the second sect1?


Hope that solves the problem. :)
