[XALANC-511] Crash during XalanTransformer::initialize on AIX

• Type: Bug
• Status: Resolved
• Priority: Major
• Resolution: Fixed
• Affects Version/s: 1.9
• Component/s: XalanC
• Environment: AIX 5.2

Description

I am using ICU 3.2, Xerces 2.6 and Xalan 1.9. Aix 5.2.
Compilers xlC_r for C++ and xlc_r for c. The call
that caused the crash is
XalanTransformer::initialize().

Release build of all components work fine. Debug build
works fine for xerces and icu. Xalan debug build
fails with errors in XalanVector.hpp.
