I was able to reproduce the problem (David hacked the build system to
accomodate using jdk1.1.8 -- thanks.)

I also fixed the problem that prevented xmlconf from been built from
source (there's patch already on java/3285 that I'll be checking in
soon.) With CLASSPATH pointing to a javax.servlet implementation (I
used Jakarta's) we're down to three rather innocuous errors:

  ./xml/vendor/HtmlParser.java	  javax.swing.text.html.parser not found
  ./xml/vendor/OracleDriver.java  oracle.xml.parser.v2 not found
  ./xml/vendor/Parser2.java	  com.sun.xml.parser not found

So maybe the build from source approach could be revisited...
