Description:
Occasionally after a build, I've found that the xerces-c_1_6_0.dll in 
Build\Win32\xml4com\ReleaseMinDependency is corrupt.  This only happens very 
rarely, and for no apparent reason, so I regret I am unable to provide steps to 
re-produce the problem.

Originally I was inclined to put this problem down to a faulty hard drive, but 
I've now seen it happen on two separate PCs.

As far a I can see, this has got to be a problem with the "Copy" command in the 
custom build step - I suspect Visual Studio (I'm using 6.0) of implementing 
it's own "Copy" command (as, surely command.com is stable)

In my own version of the source code, I have changed "Copy" to "XCopy".  
Because I can't reproduce the bug, I cannot vouch for "XCopy" being any better, 
but if two months pass without me posting any more on this subject, please 
assume that I am happy with this work around.

Please also note that if the regsvr32 in the custom build step fails (for this, 
or any other reason), no build error is triggered, hence this kind of problem 
can go completely undetected! (until the software is run).  The messages that 
do appear quickly scroll by if you're building more than just xerces-com (we 
only noticed it because we do a second regsvr32 from a make file as part of our 
automated build).
