It might be that the failure is only reproducible with clang++ (I found 
the issue originally on FreeBSD 11.1 with clang 4.0.0).

No other changes should be required to build with Xerces 3.2.  It's API 
compatible with 3.1, so will need a binary rebuild but that's about it. 
Upstream will be making a new xml-security-c release soon containing 
these patches anyway, plus a soname bump, so if Debian is already 
building fine with C++11 then there's likely not much that needs doing.
