When I first became involved with Xerces, I was amazed at the number of 
compilation warnings generated when rebuilding the library.  I had always 
assumed that because Xerces was a work-in-progress, that these would 
eventually be cleaned up.  That doesn't seem to be the case.  I could make 
the edits but don't have the ability to adequately test *all* the 
changes.  Most are nearly all trivial edits.  Alternately, I (and hopefully 
others) could fix things one module at a time.  Is there interest in 
addressing the warnings?  I don't see suppressing them as a permanent 
solution.  It merely hides potentially bad code or bad coding practices.

The following is a hand-edited abridged list of the more obvious warnings 
produced by the Borland compiler.  It does not include the (literally) 
hundreds of warnings pertaining to functions that cannot be inlined for 
various reasons.  The first warning in XML256TableTranscoder.cpp is 
probably the most serious in the list.
