Hey Steve,

Sorry to make you a guinnea pig, but no one has ever reported a
success with Xerces.pm on AIX.

Hmmm... So it's failing on the exception tests? And the reason it's
failing is because I'm checking that they have the right error code,
and it's not returning the correct enum? What enum are they returning?
(you can just add a 'print STDERR ...' before the result() call).

I've never built a threaded perl, and Xerces has always worked fine
without it.

Sorry.
