Renmaming the packages should not be a big deal - basically, just a 
search-and-replace over the import statements in the XMLC sources, without 
introducing any new code.

gnu.regexp: definitely not. The version included in the XMLC source tree is 
the unchanged official version, and XMLC uses only the published API, meaning 
it should work with either the offcial version or the one provided by XMLC.

jTidy: Don't know. There are a few patches to jTidy, but jTidy is (as opposed 
to Xerces) usually not part of an application server or other "environment" 
stuff, so it's much less likely to cause conflicts.

Agreed.
