Ok. So if I run Trac with FastCGI it should be ok since it doesn't matter
that much whether the expat linked to the python stuff is the same as the
one linked to apache, right ?

Correct.

I should point out though that the expat mismatch doesn't raise itself
as a problem as much as the comment in the wiki suggests it might. It
also isn't that hard to resolve. The big problem until that article
talking about it was written was identifying that that was actually the
cause in the first place.
