Yeah, and it seems to require a little more handholding in 1.5.5.

I can do this one, but I'm concerned because expat.sf.net isn't
responding right now. Did expat die again while I wasn't looking?
I guess that's just SourceForge sucking.
Yes, I later found out that the entire sf/slashdot/thinkgeek/etc. empire
fell over yesterday: http://www.news.com/8301-13577_3-9932132-36.html
you've got an ABI transition to deal with going from 1.95.x to 2.x, i.e.
libexpat0 to libexpat1. (Assuming I remember rightly from when I dabbled
with this).
Yes, but the package name changed, so I think all I have to do is ensure
the RFU request says to leave libexpat0 alone, right? Then other
package maintainers can rebuild for libexpat1 at their leisure. Unless,
that is, it's a big deal to port to expat 2?
All my packages are generic-build-script based.
Well, they're cygport based now. :)
