Re: Xerces on JDK 1.5 (on Gump) (fwd)

I'm going to guess this has in part to do with the
version of Ant that Gump is using to compile Xerces.  Xerces uses
its own Javac task [1] so that it compiles smoothly on JDK 1.4. This code
isn't aware of JDK 1.5 (yet) nor is the version of Ant which is distributed
among Xerces' build tools.
