Fortunately it was a problem with our server that is now corrected. You
can use propnames to show the namespace and property names of a resource
such as:

dav:/users/? propnames henrik
Fetching property names `henrik': DAV: acl
 DAV: supported-privilege-set
 DAV: current-user-privilege-set
 DAV: acl-restrictions
 DAV: principal-collection-set
 DAV: inherited-acl-set
 DAV: group-member-set
 DAV: group-membership
 DAV: resourcetype
 Witsbits creditbalance
 Witsbits country
 Witsbits email
 DAV: displayname
 DAV: principal-URL
 DAV: creationdate
 DAV: getlastmodified
 DAV: owner
 succeeded.
dav:/users/? 

Here we can see that there is two namespaces; DAV: and Witsbits.

With the patch that I sent earlier the namespace will be written for
allprop propgets as well:

dav:/users/? propget henrik
Fetching properties for `henrik':
Witsbits email = henrik (at) witsbits.com
DAV: displayname = henrik
DAV: principal-URL = https://fs.witsbits.com/users/henrik
DAV: creationdate = 2007-10-05T17:08:17Z
DAV: getlastmodified = Fri, 05 Oct 2007 17:08:17 GMT
DAV: owner = henrik
DAV: resourcetype = <principal></principal>
Witsbits creditbalance = 0
dav:/users/? 

Without the patch only the property names would be displayed. One
benefit with propnames is that that should list all defined properties
for a resource while an allprop propget would only list those properties
that the server in question chooses to send per default.
