Currently, the XalanJ tests that run with command "build apitest", are
configured within xalan-test repo's file test.properties (specified at
bottom of this file, with comments # Various tests, that run for ant
build.xml's "apitest" target. This configuration has been introduced,
starting with XalanJ 2.7.3 release).

We've recently discovered that, the test SystemIDResolverAPITest from this
set, is not producing same results on windows and Linux. Joseph Kessselman
thinks that, XalanJ codebase within the file SystemIDResolver.java that's
been tested by the test class SystemIDResolverAPITest, might have a bug.

Following is an excerpt about usages within XalanJ implementation, of the
Java class SystemIDResolver,

This shows that, Java class SystemIDResolver is used extensively within
XalanJ codebase. I think, if needed, we should fix any implementation
within XalanJ class SystemIDResolver with caution as lot of XalanJ
functionality is depending on this class.
