The one in SAX2DTM.java should never arise. As the error message and
comments indicate, it only happens if there's a coding bug elsewhere in
Xalan.
The one in DTMDefaultBase.java is in a developer's debugging routine, which
is never invoked in normal operation.
We could and probably should replace these with unrecoverable-failure
exceptions... but given that they should never actually be invoked, I'd
consider that a low-priority item.
