I was able to reproduce the problem (David hacked the build system to
accomodate using jdk1.1.8 -- thanks.)
I also fixed the problem that prevented xmlconf from been built from
source (there's patch already on java/3285 that I'll be checking in
soon.) With CLASSPATH pointing to a javax.servlet implementation (I
used Jakarta's) we're down to three rather innocuous errors:
 ./xml/vendor/HtmlParser.java	 javax.swing.text.html.parser not found
 ./xml/vendor/OracleDriver.java oracle.xml.parser.v2 not found
 ./xml/vendor/Parser2.java	 com.sun.xml.parser not found
So maybe the build from source approach could be revisited...
