It looks like BSD's default make is not GNU make...

This is good - the first handler is compiling properly - this class
does not inherit from anything.

But this one is dying on the class definition line - this is a class
which inherits from PerlCallbackHandler, and it seems not to like the
':' in the inheritance line.

Yes, this really shouldn't affect things. That was a misleading
thought on my part.

Ok. Which version of Xerces-C are you using (needs to be 2.3.0 to work
with this version of Xerces-P).

Still dying right on the inheritance line.

I hope that someone else can recognize what's happening, because I've
run out of ideas. It seems very strange. I would simply try removing
bits of the file until it compiles - so instead of:

class PerlDocumentCallbackHandler : public DocumentHandler
//				  , public  PerlCallbackHandler 


Try compiling with:
class PerlDocumentCallbackHandler // : public DocumentHandler
//				  , public  PerlCallbackHandler 

So that both super classes are commented out...

Sorry I can't be more helpful,
jas.
