I can add those conditionals, but it would be much better to create an
arch file in hints/ - the problem is, I don't know what to call the
file - for OS X it is darwin.pl, for linux it is linux.pl, but windows
and VC++ it is different...
If anyone knows, please illuminate me.

Great!

Thanks Martin! It would also be really helpful if we could put
together a binary release for Windows. I'm just not sure how to do it
at the moment.
Are you using ActivePerl? Is that what most windows users do? If so
then perhaps making a PPM file is the way to go.
I think that would open up Xerces to a lot more users...
Thanks again Martin,
jas.
