[jdom-interest] schema validation fails after switching from Xerces 2.1.0 to 2.2.0

[Scott Cantor]

Thanks, that explains it!  BTW, I was also prepared to
complain that the external-schemaLocation property
doesn't work either with Xerces 2.2.0 when using
namespaces... but I have since located that problem as
well in the bug database:

http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=13614

These are definitely not the kinds of problems you'd
expect to creep into a maintenance release!  Ouch!
