Xerces is an apache project - http://xml.apache.org/ you can find more
information about XML-Xerces (Xerces-Perl) and Xerces-C there,
including information about signing up for the mailing list.

Ok - no one's tested on slackware that I know of, so that might be
something.

it is the dynamic library that should have been installed by your
Xerces-C install - it seems that under slackware it is called
something different, or you installed it someplace non-traditional and
didn't set your LD_LIBRARY_PATH...
