Wait. Sablot 0.44 *is* using jclark's expat 1.1. The sources are just
the same; only the makefiles for use with Sablotron are added.
Expat 1.1 was the last production release before the new expat 1.95 (Oct
21, 2000). Expansion of parameter entities was only supported in a test
version of expat. In spite of the advantages of the latter, we decided
to use the stable version.
Now that expat 1.95 exists, there's no question about what to use, and
the next release of Sablot (0.50) will switch to it.
