In general, Perl should never dump core - it's very bad. Specifically
here, though, it should be a minor issue. I have seen this type of
problem happening on some installations, and have never been able to
debug the issue.
See if you can write the programs you want to write, and if so, you
can work happily. If it turns out you really need that part of the
API, and it dumps core in your application, then we can revisit the
issue.
The Perl test harness is a very rigorous environment - some problems
that appear within make test never appear in code, so before I go
jumping to fix problems, its better that you test the code you want to
run and see if it works.
Thanks for using XML-Xerces.
Cheers,
