Those classes are being used as 'poor man's namespaces', since we have to
support compilers that can don't understand C++ namespaces. Since we still
have to have some mechanism for creating effectively the same thing, we use
classes that cannot be instantiated, i.e. which are used only statically
via the class name. This should be completely legal to do.

Subject: Build errors
I have tried to build the Xerces-C libraries on two development
machines: one a solaris 2.6 with gcc 2.7.2.3 and the other a solaris
2.5.1 with gcc 2.7.2.1. Neither machine was successful. In fact, both
machines generated the same errors. I ran gmake inside the script
utility and have attached the gzipped file (6 K zipped) showing the
errors that were generated. Does anyone know why specific classes were
built with private constructors or destructors and no friends?
