Normative meaning of "cannot"

Hi,

in 6.5.1 the spec contains the following words:

    The typesafeEnumBase cannot contain the following
    simple types and therefore a JAXB implementation is
    not required to support binding of these types to
    typesafe enumeration class: "xs:QName", ...

After reading the section 7 on "Compatibility", I'm
still stuck, how to understand the above paragraph.
Is support for these types in typesafe enumeration
classes conforming to the JAXB specification or does
it require some sort of non-default switch?


Regards,

Jochen
