XML Schema: wrong error for facet <xs:length> with <xs:minLength>

Java: JRE: XML Schema: wrong error for facet <xs:length>

The JRE has an implementation of XML Schema.

One feature of XML Schema is facets, which are conditions
on a simple type. The facets include <xs:length> and <xs:minLength>.

One simple type can be derived from another, by restriction.
The rules about using <xs:length> in conjunction with <xs:minLength>
are here:

http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-xmlschema-2-20041028/datatypes.html#length-coss

  4.3.1.4 Constraints on length Schema Components

  Schema Component Constraint: length and minLength or maxLength

  If length is a member of {facets} then

  1 It is an error for minLength to be a member of {facets} unless

  1.1 the {value} of minLength <= the {value} of length and

  1.2 there is type definition from which this one is derived
  by one or more restriction steps in which minLength has
  the same {value} and length is not specified.

The problem is, the JRE does not appear to honour those rules.
It is forbidding a combination that I think is legal;
and, the error message that it issues does not relate correctly
to the XML Schema that was provided.

Please fix the JRE so that it honours the rules correctly;
and also correct the broken error message.
