I think it really can't, at least not easily. Testing for the presence of
particular SecurityManager classes doesn't really tell you which parser
implementation will actually get used at runtime when the JAXP calls are
made.

The problem is just a JAXP limitation, they haven't standardized the
SecurityManager class API so that you can install one portably (or for
that matter just install one by default so we don't have to).
