Sanity check, since I haven't been paying enough attention to this

You're aware of the distinction between the normal classpath and the
"endorsed standards"/system classpath, right?
See http://xml.apache.org/xalan-j/faq.html, entry "I'm having a
problem running Xalan-Java on JDK/JRE 1.4 or higher".
This says:
JDK/JRE 1.4, and JDK/JRE 5.0 is packaged with an old version of
Xalan-Java. The JDK/JRE will attempt to use this version instead of
any on the classpath. Unfortunately, this causes problems when
attempting to use a newer version of Xalan-Java.
Don't know about 1.4, but this is not quite true for the following on
Windows/32:
* jre1.5.0_06
* jre1.6.0_07
* jdk1.6.0_07
They do have a version of Xalan, but it has been relocated to another
package starting with "com.sun".
* TransformerFactory.newInstance() ->
com.sun.org.apache.xalan.internal.xsltc.trax.TransformerFactoryImpl
* transformerFactory.newTransformer() ->
com.sun.org.apache.xalan.internal.xsltc.trax.TransformerImpl
Putting Xalan-2.7.1.jar on the CLASSPATH overrides the defaults for
TransformerFactory and Transformer, because of:
$XalanJAR/META-INF/services/javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory
Which contains "org.apache.xalan.processor.TransformerFactoryImpl".
So with 1.5 on Windows (and apparently also on Linux), the problem has
gone. The Apache-Xalan can be chosen simply by putting the JAR on the
CLASSPATH.
