Log Message:
Update to latest release. This is supposedly the last version which requires
Java 5. Changes from 9.4 to 9.5:

The bulk of the open source parts of Saxon (the parts maintained by Saxonica) 
are now licensed under Mozilla Public License version 2.0, replacing MPL 1.0.

There have been some other changes to third-party open source components, 
notably the introduction of a new regular expression engine derived from 
Jakarta (Apache license), and the dropping of the old Base64 conversion code 
(Netscape license).

Users interested in building the product from source code need to be aware that 
the build process now includes a preprocessing phase that generate separate 
Java code for the EE, PE, and HE editions. The raw (before preprocessing) 
source code is published in the Subversion repository, but for building 
Saxon-HE, a more convenient place to start is the post-preprocessing Java code 
issued on SourceForge as a source.zip download.

A consequence of this change is that the JAR files for Saxon-HE, Saxon-PE, and 
Saxon-EE contain different class files having the same names. Therefore, the 
JAR files for different editions should not co-exist on the classpath. If you 
use internal Saxon APIs in an application, you may need to check that the 
methods you call are available in all three editions. This won't be a problem 
for interfaces that are clearly user-facing, but it could be an issue for 
applications that penetrate deeper into the internals.
