  Errors are not reported to System.err when the xsl source with non-fatal errors is processed into a
Transformer object (see test.java below) and the application does not register an ErrorListener. The
TransformerConfigurationException is thrown instead of the report. The javadoc description of the
javax.xml.transform.ErrorListener (jdk1.4.0beta-b82) reads:
  
     "public interface ErrorListener
      ...
      If an application does not register an ErrorListener, errors are reported to System.err."

This bug is found in the build jdk1.4.0-beta3-b82 and affects a new JCK1.4 test

api/javax_xml/transform/ErrorListener/index.html#Error[Error002]


In test.java the xsl source has the error: element 'xsl:template' contains the attribute 'a'. This is
non-fatal error, the attribute can be ignored.
