Scott Cantor commented on XERCESC-2257:
---------------------------------------

If you honestly think there are not a significant nunber of unfound issues =
at this point, I don't know what to say to that. Again, we have a differenc=
e of opinion.

This is about risk and future outlook. I think one would have to be absolut=
ely nuts to be using this code for new work, in particular, and by not maki=
ng the public status clear, we are not communicating that to people and I c=
ontinue to get criticized for that.

Do I think it's safe for much of anything? No, I don't. I wake up every day=
 dreading the revelations in my inbox and have for a very long time. I don'=
t know what the state of expat is, but if it's getting reports and they're =
getting fixed, that's a code base seeing analysis and getting attention. Th=
is one isn't.

All my statements are in all cases my own, and I will make that clear in th=
e future.

> Software linking with libxerces-c-3.3.dylib fails to work:

> {noformat}
> dyld[5155]: symbol not found in flat namespace (_xercesc_messages_3_2_dat=
)
> {noformat}
> =C2=A0
> This was reported to MacPorts here: [https://trac.macports.org/ticket/713=
04]
> This is a regression; 3.2.4 didn't have this problem.
> Surely for version 3.3.x on these lines {{3_2}} should be changed to {{{}=
3_3{}}}?
