Hi Gary & all,
   While reviewing ant build.bat and build.xml files within both the
XalanJ repos xalan-java and xalan-test, I realize that, they're
(mainly build.bat files) written for Java 1.3 compatibility (XalanJ
2.7.2 supported Java 1.3). From XalanJ 2.7.3 onwards, we'd require
users to use Java min level 1.8.

Therefore with Java 1.8, for example within XalanJ build.bat files I
think we cannot use -classpath to refer to xml-apis.jar and
xercesImpl.jar files that XalanJ shall provide (instead we need to use
-Djava.endorsed.dirs Java system property to refer to these XercesJ
jars).

I suspect, it'll take me few more days, to fix correctly XalanJ build
issues for 2.7.3 release (for xalan-java and xalan-test repos) and
make a new RC.

If that sounds lot of delay, can Gary or someone else, may take over
from here and fix XalanJ build issues and update readme file as well,
and make a new RC?
