Roger Leigh commented on XERCESC-2073:
--------------------------------------
One additional comment would be that given that this has been broken for so
long, that the fallbacks and feature tests no longer serve a useful purpose if
they aren't used. They could be dropped entirely!
> autoconf uses incorrect size_t and ssize_t fallback types
