Hi Boris, In the past I posted similar report for Solaris8. In Solaris8 case, specifying C compiler rectified the problem. In Linux case, removing additional parameters including compiler specifications "fixed" configure. Perhaps this 'configure' inconsistency on different platforms requires consideration.

As you might know the configure script creates the config.log file which contains more detailed information on the problem. I suggest that in the future you check this log file before reporting a problem. And if it turns out that the problem is with Xerces-C++ and not your installation, please include the relevant information from config.log.
