Dear Xerces team,
I would like to install xcerces library on a BlueGene/P machine.
That machine has a suit of cross-compilers
bgxlC++_r = C++ cross-compiler
bgxlc_r = C cross-compiler
The configure step fails with this error
$ env CXX=bgxlc++ CC=bgxlc ./configure
checking build system type... powerpc64-unknown-linux-gnu
checking host system type... powerpc64-unknown-linux-gnu
checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c

checking for a thread-safe mkdir -p... /bin/mkdir -p

checking whether to use rpath... yes

configure: error: C++ compiler cannot create executables
See `config.log' for more details.
because, looking at config.log, one check produces an error

SYNTAX

Do you know what can I do to compile the code on this particular
Bluegene? I really need this library to compile another software. I
didn't find anything with google that solve my problem.
Thank you very much in advance
Regards
