Description
There is a memory leak in the Shindig 1.0-incubating class XmlUtil where they store a Xerces DocumentBuilder configured with an inner class ErrorHandler in a thread local. This ErrorHandler reference prevents the classloader that loaded Shindig from being claimed for GC. In theory the DocumentBuilder could leak, but in practice this is loaded by the system classloader.
