Description

From Saxon 10.6.

Early analysis indicates this upgrade breaks compatibility so XMLBeans and POI users should not use Saxon 11.x until there is a new XMLBeans release that officially supports Saxon 11.x.

It does cause compile problems (see below) and also requires that users add an extra jar to their classpath (https://saxonica.plan.io/issues/5265).
