your're right. I introduced the extra target originally; I'm not sure this
is a good solution, though (slows the compilation down). IMHO we ("we" in
the sense of "Xerces" at large) should try
to compile everything directly into the /obj directory and forget about
copying *.o files and stuff but I'd consider this a major change.

yes. I started out with xml4c2_3_1 and a couple of months ago the directory
structure was changed which then introduced this behaviour.

I'll try to figure out how to do this via the Makefiles; i.e. so that the
sources remain unchanged.
BTW, you can always do something like
export LD_LIBRARYN32_PATH=whatever
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARYN32_PATH: etc
--IMO this isn't very elegant but avoids hard-coding the pathnames.

oops ;-).
Pleading "Guilty".
