Enable xmlSuite to run as part of derbyall for JVMs that embed the required 
external jars.

                 Key: DERBY-1758
                 URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-1758
             Project: Derby
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: Test
    Affects Versions: 10.2.1.0, 10.2.2.0, 10.3.0.0
            Reporter: A B


Due to the fact the XML support in Derby has external dependencies on Apache 
Xalan and a JAXP parser (such as, but not limited to, Apache Xerces), the tests 
for XML, which are all included in "xmlSuite", are not currently run as part of 
derbyall.

Changes for DERBY-688 (and DERBY-567 indirectly) have now made it so that JVMs 
which have Apache Xalan and a JAXP parser embedded in them can run the XML 
tests without requiring additional jars, assuming that the embedded version of 
Xalan is at least the minimum version required by Derby (which is currently 
2.5).

So given that, the xmlSuite should be enabled as part of derbyall for any JVMs 
that are capable of running them.  Currently, this appears to mean only ibm142 
and ibm15.

Per comments in DERBY-688, enabling the XML suite could include the following 
tasks:

  1. Enable the suite to run as part of derbyall but ONLY for JVMs that
     embed the required Xalan/JAXP classes.

  2. Resolve the following diff in lang/xmlBinding.java that occurs on
     some platforms (ex. Linux):

    < Inserted roughly 40k of data.
    10 del
    < Inserted roughly 40k of data.
    10a9,10
    > Inserted roughly 39k of data.
    > Inserted roughly 37k of data.
    21 del
    < 1, [ roughly 40k ]
    22 del
    < 2, [ roughly 40k ]
    22a21,22
    > 1, [ roughly 39k ]
    > 2, [ roughly 37k ]

  3. Add new tests to verify Derby behavior when XML classes are
    not present.

Note that #3 may turn out to be its own Jira issue; the first two, however, 
should both be addressed as part of this issue since the xmlSuite will not run 
(and pass) on all platforms if either 1 or 2 is not addressed.
