Red Hat still hasn't backported it to my knowledge.

Hi Scott,
I checked Xerces 3.1.4  sources( src/xercesc/validators/DTD/DTDScanner.cpp)

The fix is missing in them.
const XMLCh nextCh = fReaderMgr->peekNextChar();

calls without try catch .

Does the fix will be in Xerces 3.1.5?

Regards,
Vladimir.
