Indeed, this looks like it is something brand new in
xml-commons-external-1.4.01 (2009-12-15):

* Added the StAX 1.0 API (JSR 173). Sources based off of the
distribution from Apache Geronimo. (mrglavas)

Note that it looks like the classes should be in xml-apis-ext.jar and
not xml-apis.jar.

Strictly speaking, a newer version of the API is shipped with JDK 1.6
itself, so a hard dependency is not really necessary.
