No, the expat code is still included with Apache...
...but expat is a separate project at sourceforge:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/expat/
And expat's homepage is at:
http://www.libexpat.org/
My recommendation was based upon my experience with
installing a standalone version of APR and APR-UTIL,
which although they're included in Apache (i.e. srclib)
they are actually a separate Apache project
(See http://apr.apache.org/ )
I believe I was having problems configuring APR-UTIL's build
to make a "static" version of libexpat... so, I downloaded and
installed expat from sourceforge. I configured Expat
like this (platform=AIX):
CC=xlc_r ./configure --disable-shared --prefix=/usr/local/dms/expat
After building APR, I configured and built APR-UTIL using this:
CC=xlc_r ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/dms/apr-util \
--enable-threads \
--with-dbm=sdbm \
--without-berkeley-db \
--with-expat=/usr/local/dms/expat \
--with-apr=/usr/local/dms/apr/
The above built both a shared and a static version of APR-UTIL library
(i.e. libaprutil-1.a and libaprutil-1.so), which contain NO
references to a shared expat.
Another alternative, would be to "modify" Apache's "configure"...
...which is what I did to fource Apache to use a shared version
of the OpenSSL librarys (libcrypto.a and libssl.a).
