Having found the Rod Whitbury post in:-
http://www.nabble.com/I-want-to-install-a-C%2B%2B-compiler-to12322560.html#a12322560

And also how to install Optware (apparently an alternative feed for
packages, not very well explained):-
http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/Optware/Slugosbe

I ran:-

Code:
--------------------
    $ feed=http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/optware/slugosbe/cross/unstable
  $ ipk_name=`wget -qO- $feed/Packages | awk '/^Filename: ipkg-opt/ {print $2}'`
  $ wget $feed/$ipk_name
  $ tar -xOvzf $ipk_name ./data.tar.gz | tar -C / -xzvf -
  $ sed -i -e 's|/stable|/unstable|' /opt/etc/ipkg.conf
  $ /opt/bin/ipkg update
  $ /opt/bin/ipkg install expat
  
--------------------

...and this time the result was...

Code:
--------------------
    
  [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/$ /opt/bin/ipkg install expat
  Installing expat (2.0.1-1) to /opt/...
  Downloading

  Successfully terminated.
