xerces2b3: setting feature:incremental true fails many tests

           Summary: xerces2b3: setting feature:incremental true fails many
                    tests
           Product: XalanJ2
           Version: CurrentCVS
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: org.apache.xml.dtm
        AssignedTo: xalan-dev@xml.apache.org
        ReportedBy: curcuru@apache.org


Using xml-xalan CVS from 08-Nov-01 and Xerces2.0.0beta3, running the 'alltest2' 
target for the tests (only recently checked in), the majority of the conf tests 
and in particular the API test FactoryFeatureTest fails.

At first I started diagnosing the various -flavors of conf tests (dom and sax 
flavors pass over 1000 tests, so they're close; stream, systemId, file, and 
localPath flavors each fail exactly 1220 tests)
But the org.apache.qetest.xalanj2.FactoryFeatureTest is probably the best place 
to start.  It uses an identity transformer to copy a document, and then repeats 
the process with various combinations of setAttribute(feature...) on the 
TransformerFactory - all in testCase2.  Most of these tests fail when 
incremental is true and the parser is Xerces 2.
TestID: FactoryFeatureTest.java r1.1 testCase2
