Summary:                    Undefined xerces symbols encountered when trying to
compile test program
Description: 
I was trying to build a project against xerces_c today.  However, the
configure test for xerces was failing (see below).  I was on kiel, so I
have updated to the current stable release and tried the build again. 
However, the current stable release also has the same linker problems:

g++ -o conftest -Wall  -O2 -DNDEBUG -D_REENTRANT -pthreads  -L/opt/csw/lib
-R/opt/csw/lib conftest.cpp -lxerces-c -lsocket -lm

Undefined                       first referenced
 symbol                             in file
