memory leakage bug in xerces-1.3.0 (loop detection)

[Torkel Dominique <to...@hotsip.com>]

One of my colleagues happened to change a schema (by mistake) so that it
imported itself, i.e.:

mySchema.xsd:

<xsd:schema xmlns="myNamespace">
 <xsd:import namespace="myNamespace" schemaLocation="mySchema.xsd" />
...

This caused the parser to eat memory until the JVM went out of memory. Even
if this is a stupid mistake, I personally think it should be considered as a
major bug.

Is this a new bug or has it been fixed in later versions?
