Hi All,

I've isolated the problems with querying larger collections of documents
in dbXML using XPath to some strangeness in Xalan 2.2.D11, which we
included as part of the 1.0b3 distribution.  

After throwing a bunch of documents at it, the state of Xalan becomes
'confused' and it starts leaking memory, while not returning any
results.  This was not a problem in the older version of Xalan.  I don't
know if there's some extra housekeeping that needs to be done to appease
the DTM code, but I can't imagine that there needs to be.

I was going to attempt to upgrade to 2.2.D12 to see if that fixed that
problem, but the 2.2.D12 distro doesn't seem to include the trax classes
in the binary release.  The source code release does include them
though.

If we can't get this resolved, we're going to have to roll back to Xalan
2.0.1 and re-release dbXML 1.0b3 as some sort tweaked release.
