The ones in particular I'd like to remove (for now) are:

META-INF/services/javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory
META-INF/services/javax.xml.parsers.SAXParserFactory
META-INF/services/javax.xml.parsers.TransformerFactory
META-INF/services/org.xml.sax.driver

I've confirmed that JDK 1.6 includes none of these and the corresponding 
factory methods[1] in GNU Classpath still work without these.

Regards,
Jeroen

[1] The ones I tried are:

javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance()
javax.xml.parsers.SAXParserFactory.newInstance()
javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory.newInstance()
org.xml.sax.helpers.XMLReaderFactory.createXMLReader()
