I think what you mean is that you have generated the src directory using
make and then you are trying to create an XCode project to build libxsde.
Right?

I guess this is a new "feature" in the later XCode versions.

Ok, that's why you have the problem. You must not import the xsde
directory, only src. The src directory contains all the source files
that should be compiled for this configuration. The xsde directory
contains all the source files, for all the configurations, as well
as files that should not be compiled. xmltok_impl.c is one of those
files that should never be compiled directly.

If XCode cleans up everything under libxsde, try to temporarily move
the xsde, src, etc., directories somewhere, create the project, move
them back to libxsde, and then import the src directory only.
