Internal copies of third-party libraries are rather always outdated, so it's better to always use system libraries. IMHO Python shouldn't bundle any third-party libraries and should force users to use system libraries. At least, system libraries could be used by default and main `configure` could accept --with-internal-expat and --with-internal-libffi options.
