Hi,
sounds to me that the best resolution would be to remove xerces-j as
well: no software depends on it (says 'apt-cache showpkg'), and it's
been superseded by xerces2 since ages (also upstream).
I'm no DD but let me know if I can help.

Hi,
jikes is orphaned, unmaintained, and buggy and therefore we are trying
to remove it from the archive. xerces-j currently
build-depends on jikes. Could you please try to build with one of the
other java compilers and remove the jikes build-depends? I've tried
it with openjdk-6-jdk and it seems to work fairly well but does still
have some issues.
Thank you,

I'm certainly fine with that. Any comment from the Java Maintainers?
I'm happy to file the RM: if you would like.
Thanks,
