What's it looking for? The xtags DTD? If so, there's a copy under xdocs, so it ought to be possible to configure an entity resolver to use that one instead while building.

In theory all those messages should be done via log4j debug level calls, so you could always substitute another log4j.properties which switches them off (include one earlier in the classpath than the xdoclet jar, or copy your own into the jar, or use the appropriate -D option to point log4j at a different file). If they're not enabled, the performance hit should be minimal (5 nanoseconds each on a 800Mhz Duron, according to http://logging.apache.org/log4j/docs/) Having said that, I reckon the default configuration built into the release files ought to have them turned off anyway.
