Hmm, I'm not sure. Looking at your error message below I won't swear 
this is a Crimson problem. In fact, I suspect it isn't. Your alleged 
URL (file://C:\projects\wurfl\antbuild\resources\wurfl.xml)  is not 
legal according to the URL spec, and XOM is catching you. I suspect 
you would have the same problem with Xercces. Try using 
file:///C:/projects/wurfl/antbuild/resources/wurfl.xml instead.

On the other hand, if you are using a URL in the latter form and 
Crimson is converting it into the one that throws an exception, then 
let me know, and I'll see if I can work around that.
