Description

org.apache.xmlbeans.impl.common.ResolverUtil may cause an NPE to be thrown and caught in its static initialization block if the System property "xmlbean.entityResolver" is not set.

I noticed this whilst debugging Geronimo in Eclipse with a breakpoint on NullPointerExceptions being thrown/caught.

I will attach a patch that will prevent the NullPointerException being unnecessarily being thrown/caught.
