Replying to julian9@…:

Command output: Usage: runConfigure "options"

I believe I have fixed this as part of r62014. I don't know if it now builds universal because I can't build it at all on Snow Leopard because of #20979 and #22287 and #22181 says it doesn't work on Leopard either. But if you are now able to build xercesc universal as a result of my change, please say so here.

[info@…]

xercesx builds fine on Snow Leopard - but your fix doesn't help for building it universal.

Could you have a look to see if there's a fix for it?

Has probable duplicate #29373.

r62014 was a long way off being correct. Fixed in r78758.
