Answering both at once...
Info on Xalan in JDK 1.4 is here: http://xml.apache.org/xalan-j/faq.html#faq-N100CB
Personally, my favored suggestion in that case is unlisted, which is to physically remove the xalan components from rt.jar, but that can be more difficult.
And yes, major and minor bugs are always being fixed. Such is the nature of a developing project like this.
