IIRC, the requirement is to put the xalan-2.7.0.jar in to the endorsed
directory on the JDK specifically for use by uPortal.  By putting that jar
into that directory (which affects the entire JDK that's being used), I
don't think this is necessarily just a Netbeans issue.

Is there a way to install this jar so that there is less of an impact to the
entire JDK?  For example, the endorsed/lib directory in Tomcat would be a
good place since its on the classpath for all its own internal workings and
web applications.  And, this directory could easily be added to the
classpath for the command line tools in build.xml.  This would
(theoretically) allow Netbeans to be used without changing the JDK.
