Are you sure? You cited documentation from the Sun site, and if 
you've got Java 1.4 or the JWSDP or some such from Sun installed, you 
might well be using Crimson even if you also have Xercces installed.

This is the exception I get when using a java.io.FileInputStream for the 
Builder:

This is the exception I get when using a java.io.File for the Builder.

As you can see, both are from Xerces.
