    rebuild_expat_dir.sh: Script to update Modules/expat/ to libexpat 2.2.1. The script requires to manually revert one change in Modules/expat/expat_external.h to restore the #include "pyexpatns.h" line.

    Oh, it seems like the compilation of expat 2.2.0 fails on Windows with VS 9.0:
    http://bugs.python.org/issue30368#msg296493

    But it seems like expat 2.2.1 is going to fix this compilation issue!

    Re buildbot failure: see PR on bpo-29591

    It's not a problem with Expat, but with our project files.

    I will wait for 2.7, 3.5, 3.6 and master buildbots before backporting the change to 3.3 and 3.4.
