I have no AIX to test with, and am not aware of anybody succeeding in using
it yet. There are probably various patches needed to the autotools scripts,
at a minimum.

It is. You cannot mix C++ compilers. You must build everything with the same
compiler. Either Xerces has to be built with gcc, or you have to modify my
configure scripts to use xlC.

Try the Xerces list if you need help getting it to build. I also suspect
that xml-security won't build on AIX either.
