[jdom-interest] SAXBuilder

[Jason Hunter]

Looks to me like the Linux JVM has a bug which Xerces tickles, causing
the JVM to crash.  Xerces is the default parser.  When you switch to
Crimson, the bug in the JVM isn't tickled.  I'd report the error to the
maker of the Linux JVM you're using.  As a workaround, you can use
Crimson.
