Sorry, I forgot to describe what the two bugs actually are, although the
testcase already contains a brief description.

The first one is that CDATA sections in XML files are converted to text.
Normally, a tag, linebreak, cdata section, linebreak, end tag would result in
the child nodes text (the line break), cdata-section, text. Classpath parses
the cdata section as text and subsequently joins it with the linebreaks. This
is wrong, CDATA sections need to be preserved.

The second one is that the parser throws gnu.xml.dom.ls.DomLSException. This is
GNU specific and application authors have no chance of guarding against this.
FileNotFoundException should be used in this particular example. In general,
all internal exception types should be mapped to standard exceptions as per
API.
