XOM API for Processing XML with Java

[Wolfgang Hoschek <whoschek AT lbl.gov>]

In d23, nu.xom.xerces.XML1_0ParserConfiguration throws exceptions (see 
below) on older xerces versions such as xerces-2.3.0 because certain 
methods or fields are missing there. It works fine with xerces-2.6.1.

One would hope that people have that latest xerces version, but in 
servlet containers and other deployed middleware one cannot assume that, 
because often the xerces version gets automatically "inherited" from the 
whatever the container ships with. Since these old xerces versions don't 
implement xml 1.1 anyway, I think xom should silently ignore the 
exception with try-catch and just move on undisturbed.
