Gerry,

The standard output stream from the configure(1) script (file "configure.log") 
contained this:

checking for library containing XML_StopParser... no
configure: error: cannot find EXPAT function XML_StopParser

Does the file "/usr/lib64/libexpat.so.1.6.0" on your system contain this symbol?

The file "config.log" contained this:

configure:4803: cc -o conftest -O -DNDEBUG  conftest.c -lexpat   >&5
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lexpat

It would appear, therefore, that cc(1) doesn't check the "/usr/lib64" directory 
for libraries.

There should be a way to configure ld(1) on the system to check the 
"/usr/lib64" directory.

> Here's the attached files. Assuming you wanted to see the full output
> (stderr/stdout) captured to configure.log? Otherwise, I don't see one.

Regards,
Steve Emmerson
