This is because the Xerces-C API changes with every version. So most
often you cannot link an older version of XML-Xerces with a newer
version of Xerces-C - sometimes it will work, but very rarely.

Well, you can simply comment out the line in the Makefile.PL that
checks the versions and try the compile. My guess is that it will fail
badly, but you can try.

The other option is to either help me find funding so that I can work
on XML-Xerces more often (and make a real 2.6 release), or to find
other developers who can assist in the Xerces development.

Cheers,
jas.
