    configure should support --with-system-expat option (similarly to --
    internal copy of expat. It will be useful for some distributions (e.g.
    Gentoo), which prefer to use system libraries instead internal copies.

    Some fragment of my initial comment disappeared :( .

    This option will be similar to '--with-system-ffi' option.
    It will cause using system expat instead of internal copy of expat.

    The comment "Usage of a system shared libexpat.so/expat.dll is not
    advised." just above the change should probably be revised.
