Infopath 2003 SP1: problems with minoccurs=0 in external XML schem

[MartinOslo]

I have made a nice schema in XML-spy and am trying to use Infopath for
dataentry, but when I design the form some of my "minoccurs=0" elements get a
red star (i.e. mandatory field) in Infopath, even though infopath details say
that minoccurs=0.
The xsd is at http://www.grip.no/gsdemo/GRIPeksemplene.xsd and the offending
elements er sted, steg, år and sluttår.
Anyone had the same problems? Got a workaround?
