My suggestion (untested):

import sys

if sys.platform[:4] == 'java':
     from javax.xml.parsers import DocumentBuilder, DocumentBuilderFactory
     from org.w3c.dom import *
     factory=DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance()
     builder = factory.newDocumentBuilder()
     parseString=self.builder.parse
else:
     from xml.dom import minidom,Node
     parseString=minidom.parseString

Mit freundlichen Gruessen,
