I get a classcast on JAXP with those changes on JDK 1.4 (fixed by removing Xerces from endorsed). Getting the CL to work right is tricky, and I'm not terribly interested in supporting playing with the system extensions. So unless it is easy to fix, I'm not sure it's a good idea to go through the whole debugging process for the CL *again*.
