It turned out that our perl builds have virtually identical predefines
to yours (except for -DDEBIAN, obviously) but that Makefile.PL wasn't
generating this predefine for XML::Xerces for some reason, although this
may have been related to the slightly odd setup on my computer (I don't
know anything really about how MakeMaker works, but I have a perl of my
own with different predefines and perhaps it was matching its
configuration to that rather than to our 'official' perl build). Anyway,
a quick hack later and it was building with the same predefines as our
perl and built but failed all the tests. So I hacked the build of the
Xerces library itself in a similar way and it now passes 99.99% of the
tests, which is probably good enough for me. I was wondering if you
could tell me what the following error might indicate though (tests that
passed with no caveats stripped from output):

Heh - sadly not one of our supported platforms ;)
Thanks for your help!
