It won't happen if you remove the "endorsed.dirs" from the CLI.

I think endorsed is completely broken, there are many other problems
and leads to undeterministic behavior. We should just remove it and
add it back in JDK1.5 or when it is fixed.

Actually, the problem was that the "bin" directory was set as endorsed, and one JAR in there was including a lot of things that didn't belong. Nasty bug to spot ;-)

This should fix all the commons-logging CL failures users have been reporting (I think).

My +1 to remove the "endorsed". There is no need to use a different
version of javax.xml or org.w3c.dom or org.xml - and if someone needs
a different one, he can use JDK1.3 or file a bug report on Sun site.

With only the XML parser in there, I don't think it creates problems. If the user tries to use it, there could be problems, that's true ;-) It's a bit like allowing users to change the system classpath, actually.

BTW, I'm having issues with your latest change to the main build.xml (it fails trying to build Coyote).
