Synopsis: 
xml.jar or parser.jar incompatible with latest Xerces parser

Description:
The JSP processor has its own xml parser in xml.jar(3.1) or
parser.xml(3.2). I am developing an application using Xerces 
3.01. Unfortunately the JSP jar defines the org.w3c.dom.Document
interface and doesn't include the importNode method.

I get a NoMethod failure on calling importNodes. This is due
to the old document interface in xml/parser.jar. My reference
to w3c.org.dom.Document is resolving to the JSP jar not the
Xerces.jar I include in webapps/examples/web-inf/lib.

Most preferable would be to not use the org.w3c.dom path in these
jars.
