Greetings Rick,
Thank you for reminding of the legacy this part of the ooRexx build process
came from.

The whole reason those files are generated using xalan is because the original code received from IBM actually used a rexx script to generate the error message files. So you needed a working rexx
interpreter in order to build oorexx, which made it a bit tricky porting the code to a new platform. It also complicated the build, because those files are generally created as the first step of the
build when it is necessary to do so, which resulted in rxapi.exe getting launched. Things worked much more smoothly once the rexx dependency was removed from the build process. If the lack of a cross
platform solution to this bothers anybody, then they are invited to put the time in to fix that.
