Xerces version?

[Ben Discoe]

What version of Xerces should i use to build GDAL? The last time i grabbed
the gdal 1.1.7 source archive, it seemed to want Xerces 1.7.0. But, the
latest Xerces is 2.1.0. Building against it has linking problems. If i
grab GDAL from cvs, will it work with a newer version of Xerces? Or should
i wait until the next GDAL source archive is released? Or should I dig the
1.7.0 version out of the archive part of the Xerces site?

Thanks,
Ben
