[XML 1.0] - E14 of SE errata not fully implemented.

           Summary: [XML 1.0] - E14 of SE errata not fully implemented.
           Product: Xerces2-J
           Version: 2.5.0
          Platform: All
               URL: http://www.w3.org/XML/xml-V10-2e-errata#E14
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: Other
        AssignedTo: xerces-j-dev@xml.apache.org
        ReportedBy: mrglavas@ca.ibm.com


This errata E14 [1] concerns proper nesting of parameter entities. It looks 
like we're supposed to report a validity constraint violation for structures 
which start in one entity and end in another. Xerces correctly processes some 
documents of this form, but fails the OASIS test mentioned in the rationale for 
the errata.  Currently Xerces (in CVS as of November 10, 2003) reports a fatal 
error for this document from OASIS:

xmltest/invalid/001.xml:
<!DOCTYPE doc SYSTEM "001.ent">
<doc></doc>

with 001.ent:
<!ELEMENT doc EMPTY>
<!ENTITY % e "<!--">
%e; -->
