Hmm, that should probably go in the README and the configure script
should check for that if it is required, because it thinks it has
found it when it finds gnujaxp.jar, so I'm not sure exactly what it's
supposed to be checking when it does that test.

I still don't understand why it doesn't work with JAXP (which is pure
Java isn't it?) when I can see the relevant classes in the gnujaxp.jar
file and why it seems to be checking for a shared library.  

By the way, how do you currently build gjdoc, still with ANT?
