Yes, it's OK to change it if you can. But it is often less desirable to
do so because you'd like to keep the original schema intact.
XJC should have provided some solution for this kind of problem (which
is usually called as "entity resolution"), but it doesn't.
The workaround that I can think of is to configure HTTP proxy setting
(XJC has this option) so that XJC can resolve them, or perhaps you can
use the entity resolver from Norm Walsh here at Sun
