I can't give you the source, but just so you know that it's possible, we did 
port expat a couple of years ago.  Also to let you know, it wasn't fun.

Has anyone tried porting expat ( http://sourceforge.net/projects/expat/ )?
Parsing XML is just string parsing, so it doesn't seem like any exotic
OS features would be needed.  It might use a lot of memory or something,
but hopefully it shouldn't be much larger than whatever size XML
messages you're using.  (Actually, based on the model, which involves
callbacks, there is no obvious reason it should need lots of memory.)

Plus it has a very liberal license that grants you license "to deal
in the Software without restriction, including without limitation
the rights to use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute,
sublicense, and/or sell copies of the Software" provided that you
include the copyright notice.
