--- Comment #1 from Xin LI <[email protected]> ---
For portmgr -- The two versions (2.4.2 and 2.4.3) are ABI and API compatible.

Code diff can be reviewed here:
https://github.com/libexpat/libexpat/compare/R_2_4_2...R_2_4_3

I've replaced my own desktop's expat2 with an independently created and almost
identical patch and didn't observed any issue (as expected).

Note that unlike the base system bundled expat2 (libbsdxml) which processes
mostly trusted data (GEOM, libmt were from kernel; the exception was
unbound-anchor, but that was signed data), vulnerabilities in port expat2 could
be a greater threat.
