It sounds like you've taken all the right steps. Can you make sure that
--generate-any-type is specified when compiling all your schemas (in
particular, it must be in effect when compiling elements of anyType).

If this does not help, try to come up with a small test (i.e., schema,
test driver, and an XML file), that reproduces this issue and I will
take a look.
