Hi folks,

I've committed a change to Xerces build system that enabled it to compile
under IBM's JDK 1.4 without hacking up the JDK installation.  Basically,
I've created a new Ant task that extends ant's default javac ant task by
fiddling with javac's bootclasspath if it's determined it's running on an
IBM JDK 1.4 installation.

This shouldn't impact anyone who's using our build scripts (build.bat and
build.sh); they've been updated appropriately.  But, if you're running Ant
directly, you'll need to make sure ant has access to the new xjavac.jar in
the tools/bin directory; if it doesn't, it won't be able to instantiate the
new build task and the build will fail instantly.

Hope this doesn't inconvenience anyone too much; unfortunately, there
wasn't a cleaner solution that I could discern.

Cheers,
Neil
