I encountered the same problem with yesterday's version.
(I'm running JDK 1.1.7 on WinNT)

Seems as if its kind of a version problem: when I have the
xerces.jar that comes with XML4J 3.0.1 in my classpath, the
file (personal.xml which also comes with XML4J 3.0.1) parses
correctly.
When I use the (more recent) xerces.jar from the JDOM
distribution, I get the following error:
org.jdom.JDOMException: Error on line 2 of XML document: Element type "personnel
" must be declared.: Error on line 2 of XML document: Element type "personnel" m
ust be declared.
