Re: EntityResolver problem with Aelfred parser

Thanks for the report, I'll wait for some comments about it before
applying the proposed patch:

,----
| line 585 of SAXDriver (package gnu.xml.aelfred2)
| 
|             in.setSystemId (absolutize (baseURI, in.getSystemId (), false));
| 
| the last argument of to absolutize should be true: the absolutize should
| be 'nice=true' and thus return the unabsolutized systemId by giving a chance
| to the call to EntityResolver in the next line:
| 
|             source = entityResolver.resolveEntity (in.getPublicId (),
|                         in.getSystemId ());
`----

Many thanks,
