The short piece of code I quoted comes after 948 lines of valid XML.
The xalan processing complains about the fact that at line 949 a new
<?xml version="1.0"?>... header is popping up. By deleting lines 949
and further (i.e. the short quoted piece), the complaints from xalan
go away.

xalan-j_2_0_0.tar.gz, downloaded from the Apache XML site.
It includes a xerces.jar as well in the bin subdirectory.
