The sources must be added to the jaxp/jaxws repositores. In fact I
have done that already in the build-infra forest.

It suppose it is a matter of educating sustaining engineering that
fixes to jaxp and jaxws has to go through the upstream repositories.
A bit of software to prevent messing this up would help, but is not
immediately needed.
