Description

I noticed that XMLXXETest failed on a machine with Swedish locale:

derby.log shows that the following exception was raised:

ERROR 2200M: Invalid XML Document: JAXP00010001: Parsern har påträffat fler än "64000" enhetstillägg i dokumentet - gränsvärdet för JDK har uppnåtts.

It is the expected exception, but the test searches for the substring "entity expansions" in the error message. It doesn't find the substring since the error message has been translated from English to Swedish.

One way to fix it is to make the test case use assertStatementError() and check the SQLState instead of the error message text.
