Quoting the Xerces-C++ 3-series build instructions[1]:

"If you are linking your application to the static Xerces-C++ library,
 then you will need to compile your application with the 
 XERCES_STATIC_LIBRARY preprocessor macro defined in order to turn
 off the DLL import/export mechanism."

So adding XERCES_STATIC_LIBRARY to the preprocessor defines
should fix this.
