Scott Cantor commented on XERCESC-2190:
---------------------------------------

Officially, there's no question here, we're not supporting any EOL Windows 
versions. I'm not trying to waffle on that at all. I would suggest if there's a 
3.3 you just pull the offending code at that point if it makes life easier.

Re: RHEL, my RPMs have to build clean and install clean on the stock platform. 
I do think all the C++ is now in my hands, so the install might be clean, but 
my build at present doesn't have any ability to incorporate a non-stock 
compiler at build time. That may change but not likely any sooner than November 
when it goes EOL.
