I did the junit tests with various combinations of xercesImpl.jar,
xml-apis.jar, xalan.jar. These cause various errors. Most of them may
be ascribed to incompatible combinations of versions of these three
jar files. I paid special attention to the jar files that come with
SDK 1.4.2_01, those that come with FOP CVS HEAD and those that come
with Xalan 2.5.2; these should be compatible combinations.

No error occurs with the jar files from the SDK. One error occurs
with each of the other two combinations. In both cases the error
occurs in:

    [junit] TEST org.apache.fop.BasicDriverTestSuite FAILED

and is similar (line numbers differ). Below an extract from the test
report for FOP's jar files:
