bug in javax.xml.parsers.SAXParserFactory?

I've been trying to use Xerces 1.1.1 with Ant and am getting the
following
error when doing a build:

Starting Ant...

Buildfile: build.xml
Exception in thread "main" javax.xml.parsers.FactoryConfigurationError:
Cannot load class SAXParserFactory class
"org.apache.xerces.jaxp.SAXParserFactoryImpl"
        at
javax.xml.parsers.SAXParserFactory.newInstance(SAXParserFactory.java:153
)
        at
org.apache.tools.ant.ProjectHelper.getParserFactory(ProjectHelper.java:5

        at
org.apache.tools.ant.ProjectHelper.parse(ProjectHelper.java:102)

        at org.apache.tools.ant.Main.main(Main.java:191)

It seems that the class javax.xml.parsers.SAXParserFactory wants to
use the class:

org.apache.xerces.jaxp.SAXParserFactoryImpl

as its implementation class, but the implementation class does
not exists in the Xerces JAR file.  Was the org.apache.xerces.jaxp
package not included in the xerces.jar file?

Thanks,
