[Bug classpath/23341] New: [XML] ClassCastException with javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory

[WBaer at gmx dot de]

Hi,

this bug is exposed by the avalon-framework testsuite with the test
org.apache.avalon.framework.configuration.test.DefaultConfigurationSerializerTestCase

In this testcase somewhere the following code is called:

SAXTransformerFactory factory = 
   (SAXTransformerFactory)TransformerFactory.newInstance();

which results in a ClassCastException as 
gnu/xml/transform/TransformerFactoryImpl does not extend
SAXTransformerFactory but only TransformerFactory.

Looking in the gnu.xml code it seems that we currently lag
a SAXTransformerFactory implementation.
