If you want to use xerces you will have to make it available by
setting java.endorsed.dirs to point to the directory holding its jar.
Otherwise I think you'll end up using the built-in xml code (due to
class loader delegation).

Hmm, I would have expected to see more things in the class path here.
It sounds like we are ignoring -cp when -jar is given.  I'm not sure
what behavior is correct here.  One way to test this theory is to add
rssowl.jar to the -cp argument, and instead of '-jar rsssowl.jar', use
the name of the main class.
