Someone else reported a problem like this recently. I believe the
problem is that the javax.xml.parsers code in xerces.jar is really old
an out of date. The newest code is in the xml-commons repository under
java/external/. You can check it out of CVS and place the resulting
xml-apis.jar file before xerces.jar in your classpath and it should
work. If you haven't already done so I'll try to check on it later
today and get back with you.
