[jdom-interest] ClassCastException

I'm continuing to investigate and there's something really weird 
going on here. build test behaves as normal. However, "build testui" 
results in a version of org.apache.xerces.parsers.SAXParser getting 
loaded which is *not* an instanceof XMLReader. However, if I run 
"build test" then the org.apache.xerces.parsers.SAXParser  loaded is 
an instanceof XMLReader. Curiouser and curiouser. Possibly the JUnit 
UI classes or Swing classes use an earlier, pre-XMLReader version of 
org.apache.xerces.parsers.SAXParser? So far I can't explain this.

Catching ClassCastExxception as suggested in my previous message does 
fix the problem.
