What about using jaxp-1.1 ? You can now build the whole thing from 
xml-commons, xml-crimson and xml-xalan. 

Jaxp1.0 is quite old, we should upgrade ( many bugs were fixed  ).

I personally prefer using crimson ( but I can live with xerces1 ) - code
size is the one reason ( I also worked much more with crimson ). Long term
we'll use xerces2 of course.
