In general they should be auto-exported like any other symbol. It depends
if there are any dllexport annotations in play, which would cancel
auto-export. There could also be compiler or linker problems, we'll need to
debug it.

No, that's standard libtool behaviour: ld doesn't understand the contents of
a .lo file, libtool parses them out, finds the actual PIC objects and builds a
list of input files to avoid passing over-long command-lines.
Let's see the output for 'nm xercesc/util/.libs/XMLException.o'; that should
confirm whether the typeinfo got generated or not. After that, we'll need to
find out if it's in the DLL but not exported, and whether auto-export is in
operation or not.
