 2. Gentoo
    #USE="-nocxx icu" emerge ">=dev-util/cmake-2.6" automake ">=sys-devel/gcc-4.3.3" ">=dev-libs/xerces-c-2.8" ">=dev-libs/boost-1.34" ">=dev-util/cppunit-1.12" log4cxx maven-bin

IV. precision of xsd:decimal numbers.

To increase the precision of decimal numbers use:
 xmlbeansxx::TextUtils::setPrecision(int precision);
if you use gmpxx the precision can by very large.
