I wish to share my anguish, that following Xerces bug has caused me:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XERCESJ-1687
The bug reporter is very right in his arguments. But somehow I've to say, the Xerces team cannot fix this bug right now. I've also been thinking to "resolve" this bug with a fix reason "later" (but my conscience doesn't allow that either).
I hope the situation will improve.
