binary download is missing a library needed for svalidate

I downloaded xmlbeans from http://apache.seekmeup.com/xmlbeans/binaries/xmlbeans-2.0.0.tgz, set my XMLBEANS_HOME and XMLBEANS_LIB directories, and tried to run svalidate - it throws javax.xml.stream.FactoryConfigurationError, complaining that Provider com.bea.xml.stream.MXParserFactory not found. This was happening because jsr173_ri.jar wasn't included in the lib directory of the binary download. I found that lib on the Net and put it in place, and svalidate works.

(I had the same problem under Linux and Windows.)

Also, the bin/validate command has an upper/lowercase problem:

cp=$XMLBEANS_LIB/xbean.jar:$XMLBEANS_LIB/jsr173_api.jar:$XMLBEANS_LIB/jsr173_ri.jar

case "`uname`" in
CYGWIN*)
CP=`cygpath -w -p $CP`
;;
esac

java -classpath $CP org.apache.xmlbeans.impl.tool.StreamInstanceValidator $*

I think you want "CP" everywhere that "cp" is set.
