I'm using autoconf and automake to make manage the makefiles for my
project which uses xerces. And basically what I want to do is to have
./configure for my project to complain if it can't find the Xerces-C
libraries and headers. If Xerces-C is installed would like ./configure to
figure out where it's installed (if it's installed in a non stantard
location).

Right now I'm developing on Linux with g++ using xerces 2.3. Compiling and
linking 'manualy' by specifying include and library directories and what
lib to use works just fine.
