Hello Kay,
that does not solve the original problem yet.
I have a 64 bit SUSE linux, compiled base 3.14.11 as 32bit because I have to link my IOC with
a vendor (CAEN) supplied library.

Now when I try to build ChannelArchiver I first had the problem that under SUSE the
includes seem to be in different places. Having solved this I still can not link
due to the missing 32bit version of the xerces lib.

I will probably have to make also a 64 bit base and point ChannelArchiver to that.
