problems with ' using Xerces-J-bin.2.8.0

Previously we are using Xerces - 1.4.3 and Xalan - 2.1.0 but now we are
looking to use latest versions of these jars Xerces-J-bin.2.8.0 and 
Xerces-J-bin.2.7.1.                                              

                                                                                                   
When we had a test run for these latest jars we came up with the problem
that "&apos;" get converted to a literal apos (" ' ") in the input file
after getting parsed.

                                                                    can you
please let me know what could be the reasons for this changes.......

This is normal behaviour described here [1][2] in the XML spec.
