Heh, heh... No that safeguard was put there to ensure your happiness.
It is almost guaranteed not to compile because of API changes that
happen between versions.

There is no XML::Xerces-2.8 series. This is because the code has been
reorganized into the Xerces-3.0 line - so it is actually part of the
Xerces-C code now, a sub-project of Xerces-C and not it's own project.
But sadly, Xerces-3.0 has still not been released.

It will take a fairly large amount of work to put out a 2.8 release,
and my free time is currently used up. I would rather suggest you use
2.7 until 3.0 is released. If someone is desperately needing 2.8 they
can voice it on the list...

Cheers, jas.
