That's a very bad idea, as it means perl-XML-Xerces can't be rebuilt anymore. 
(The whole reason we're talking about a compat package is that it doesn't build 
against the current version.) What if a security issue or some other serious 
bug is found in that package? I think library packages, even compat ones, 
without a -devel package should be banned! They're definitely not a solution if 
some other Fedora package needs to build against that version of the library.
