There are two jars that you have to remove.  did you remove to 
both?  xercesImpl.jar and xmlParserAPIs.jar.  Also, JAXP is just a set of 
interfaces.  There has to be an implementation such as crimson, xerces, 
etc...  Which JAXP compliant implementation are you using?  Is it an old 
xerces or something else?  You might need to try using JDk1.3.1 which 
doesn't include any XML parser api's.  Then put your jar in common/lib or 
common/endorsed and see if things work.
