Unfortunately, constructing a URL from a filename in a way that works on all
platforms is much more complex than prepending 'file:/'.

Are you using a Unix absolute filename or a relative filename here?

I might be related to a bug in the reference implementation of JAXP 1.1.
I've recently discovered that this is fixed in the version of JAXP
distributed by apache but not in the version available from Sun, so I will
go steal the apache version.
