Quoting Alberto Massari[1]:

"You can read the policy at
 http://xml.apache.org/xerces-c/faq-contributing.html#faq-2; in short,
 a 2.7.1 version would be binary compatible with 2.7.0, and this can
 only happen shortly after releasing the previous version in order to
 be sure that only the fixes that don't change the binary interface
 were committed."

> Are there any binary incompatibilities known?

Yes, there are binary-incompatible changes that I am aware of (e.g,
an inline function made non-inline). The 2.8.0 will be interface-
compatible with 2.7.0 though (that is, an application will need
to be recompiled but no changes will be necessary).
