[jdom-interest] debug everywhere

[Jason Hunter]

When you pass a string to the build() command you are passing a 
systemId, not a path to file.  Internally it's converted to a SAX 
InputSource.  Odds are it's a backslash related issue in that you were 
lucky sometimes your file path worked as a systemId, but on Windows it 
doesn't because of C: and backslashes.
