No, I meant adding something like

    if (Float.parseFloat(System.getProperty("java.specification.version")) < 
1.6f) {
        if(null == System.getProperty("org.xml.sax.driver")) {
           
System.setProperty("org.xml.sax.driver","org.apache.xerces.parsers.SAXParser");
        }
    }

to the ctor of both JOCL tests.

Yeah, those VMs can really create a headache if you need synchronized times 
or depend on time resolution.
