Almost by definition, the safety implications are that an application would be
vulnerable to privilege escalation. That's literally what most non-networked
security issues do. Not everyone uses this code strictly for trusted input and
most XML vulnerabilities are largely evaluated in that context.

Is mid-2025 too soon? The absolute upper bound would probably have been some
time in 2026 at this point anyway.

> Affects Versions: 3.3.0
> Reporter: Ryan Carsten Schmidt
> Priority: Major

> Software linking with libxerces-c-3.3.dylib fails to work:

> {noformat}
> dyld[5155]: symbol not found in flat namespace (_xercesc_messages_3_2_dat)

> This was reported to MacPorts here: [https://trac.macports.org/ticket/71304]
> This is a regression; 3.2.4 didn't have this problem.
> Surely for version 3.3.x on these lines {{3_2}} should be changed to
> {{{}3_3{}}}?
