You are right. In fact, the Java 8 version of this class uses the system property name literally (as seen here https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/net/ContentHandler.html). So the system property and its semantics have been known previously.

Looking at the commit history of this file, it appears that this broken reference got unintentionally introduced in later versions.
