resolveEntity called with null SystemId for PUBLIC + relative paths

           Summary: resolveEntity called with null SystemId for PUBLIC +
                    relative paths
           Product: Xerces2-J
           Version: 2.0.0
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Critical
          Priority: Other
         Component: SAX
        AssignedTo: xerces-j-dev@xml.apache.org
        ReportedBy: ashundi@extensibility.com


When xerces parses following xml file

<!DOCTYPE root PUBLIC "somePubId" "../relative/schema.dtd">
<root ...>

it calls the external entity resolver with a null SystemId and "somePubId" for 
publicId.  Instead, the SystemId parameter to org.xml.sax.EntityResolver should
be the absolute path.

I think the problem is at XMLEntityManager ::resolveEntity line 523
in org.apache.xerces.impl.  It should check and expand expandedSystemId
before passing it on.

By the way: xerces fails the relevant sax2unit tests from 
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=8114
as referred by http://www.saxproject.org/
