Latest XalanC from CVS will not link with Xerces 2.3 on AIX

           Summary: Latest XalanC from CVS will not link with Xerces 2.3 on
                    AIX
           Product: XalanC
           Version: 1.5
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: AIX
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: XalanC
        AssignedTo: xalan-dev@xml.apache.org
        ReportedBy: mhoyt@ca.ibm.com


The latest XalanC source from CVS will not link with Xerces 2.3 on AIX 5.1.   
This is because the Makefile.in will explicitly link against libxerces-c22:

  ifeq ($(PLATFORM), AIX)
    ALLLIBS += -L$(XERCESCROOT)/lib -lxerces-c22
  else
    ALLLIBS += -L$(XERCESCROOT)/lib -lxerces-c
  endif

The XercesC 2.2 (and 2.3) AIX distributions contains a "libxerces-c" symlink, 
so I am not sure why this check is here.  Legacy?  AIX issue?
