This is on CentOS 4.5 and so Apache 2.0.52-38 - I cant change the OS version but i could change the apache and or mod_python version.

Does anyone know of any fixes to this apart from rolling my own?

OK ... did you check the expat versions used by all the items involved?

which one needs to be recompiled :D

Specifically ... I am looking at the httpd and python and pyexpat used in CentOS 4 ... I get this:

=====
[root@v20z-x86-64 ~]# python
Python 2.3.4 (#1, Dec 11 2007, 05:28:55)
[GCC 3.4.6 20060404 (Red Hat 3.4.6-9)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import pyexpat

>>> pyexpat.version_info
(1, 95, 7)
=====
[root@v20z-x86-64 ~]# ldd /usr/sbin/httpd | grep expat
        libexpat.so.0 => /usr/lib64/libexpat.so.0 (0x0000002a95dba000)

[root@v20z-x86-64 ~]# strings /usr/lib64/libexpat.so.0 | grep expat_
expat_1.95.7
=====

So, it does not seem that Apache or Python or pyexpat that comes standard in CentOS-4 has this issue.
