I think the problem was that I was running JDK 1.5, and the documentation
build appears to ONLY work with JDK 1.4. After I fully reset my environment
to JDK 1.4 (both PATH and JAVA_HOME), the build seems to run successfully.
Hi Bryan,
Andrew suggested that this problem would go away if you put the Xalan
jars in the classpath.

By the way, I vaguely recall that we did some work to get the docs to
build with DITA 1.2. Have you tried upgrading it?
That would be an interesting experiment. Actually Andrew McIntyre did
some work to get Derby to build with DITA 1.3 and a newer version of
FOP, but I'm not sure it worked. We would probably need an expert like
Andrew to do some tweaking of the Derby files to make the build work
right. I think he made some progress -- see DERBY-2373 -- but I'm not
sure it has been followed up on.
DITA is now at 1.4.
