Peeter Piegaze found out the problem:
I was able to build it without a problem using maven-1.1-beta-2 and JDK 1.4.2.
However, it sounds to me like in your case maven has set up its
on-build classpath so that it sees the older xerces-2.4.0.jar before
the new xerxesImpl.-2.6.2.jar. Maven seems to download the old
xerces-2.4.0 into its repository for internal use, while my code uses
the newer xerxesImpl-2.6.2.jar. The old jar overlaps class-wise with
the new one, but the new one implements the additional loadURI method
(among others).
I am not sure exactly why your maven build process is looking in the
wrong jar. But that is what is doing, almost certainly.
