Hi John,
None of Xerces' DOM implementations are thread-safe, even the
non-deferred ones. This is true even for read operations. In
particular, the implementation of the NodeList methods (i.e. item()
and getLength()) are not thread-safe. These methods do some internal
writes to a cache which are necessary for good performance. There's a
longer explanation in the JIRA issue you found.
Thanks.

Given that this keeps coming up, wouldn't it be prudent to fix this
issue or have a separate DOM implementation that's read thread-safe?
Would it really be that difficult?
