Saxon 6.5.4 is a different kettle-of-fish entirely (or can-of-worms, if you
prefer). Because Saxon 6.5.4 runs on JDK 1.2 and later, it's not using the
java.net.URI class to do URI validation, but rather the older and more
liberal java.net.URL. If there are variations between one environment and
another, as you suggest, then it's probably because they are using different
versions of the Java VM: I believe that various bugs, which are exploited by
some users as features, have been fixed in this class along its journey.
