Ah, yes, that did help.  You have to endorse Xerces and Xalan (and I 
need to add this step to the instructions).  You can use the jars in the 
build-lib directory or get the latest from the xml.apache.org website. 
Here's the instructions on how to do the endorsement:

http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/standards/

When you do that, and if you still get this problem, you'll see that the 
all the class names are simply "org.apache.*" and not 
"com.sun.org.apache.*".  If the class names didn't change than check to 
make sure you put the endorsed jars in the correct location (i.e. if you 
have multiple JDKs/JREs on your machine).
