XSV is happy with the files as shipped, _and_ with 'offending' import
(which I agree is unneeded) removed from testSchema.xsd.

This sounds like a bug in whatever validator you're using.

Here's XSV's output once the 'offending' import is deleted, FYIW:

<xsv xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/05/xsv' docElt="{TTT}test"
     instanceAssessed="true" instanceErrors="0" rootType="[Anonymous]"
     schemaErrors="0" schemaLocs="TTT -> testSchema.xsd; AAA -> altSchema.xsd"
     target="test.xml"
     validation="strict" version="XSV 2.2-2 of 2002/12/03 10:45:21">
  <schemaDocAttempt
    URI="testSchema.xsd"
    namespace="TTT" outcome="success" source="schemaLoc"/>
  <schemaDocAttempt
    URI="headSchema.xsd"
    namespace="HHH" outcome="success" source="import"/>
  <schemaDocAttempt
    URI="altSchema.xsd"
    namespace="AAA" outcome="success" source="schemaLoc"/>
  <schemaDocAttempt
    URI="headSchema.xsd"
    namespace="HHH" outcome="redundant" source="import"/>
</xsv>

The "redundant" outcome doesn't mean the import wasn't required, just
that the schemaLoc wasn't pursued since we'd already done one.
