I believe the originals in the javax.xml packages had package
accessibility, because the implementors didn't want them to become part of
the public API of JAXP. However, we give many things in Xalan-J public
accessibility, even when we consider them to be part of the private API of
Xalan-J, just because of the way we've structured the packages. Is there
any other reason why I shouldn't make org.apache.xml.utils.SecuritySupport
public?

However, I see the answer in the comments of the SecuritySupport class:

* to be package private so the APIs aren't exposed to other
* code that could use them to circumvent security.
I guess that I'll need to duplicate the classes.
