Sorry for the delay, but I've been trying to reach the author for license
clarification.  No response yet, and I see other unanswered attempts on the
message board to get a clear statement out of the author.  I'm going to
consider my options, but at this point I guess we have to consider this review
dead in the water on legal grounds. :-(

With regards to comment #1, the spec file link now works.  Also, this package
does not include a library of any kind.  It is purely a header file that maps
the C expat headers into C++ classes with inline code.

And, finally, it's really old and doesn't include a bunch of stuff from newer
versions of expat.  Given all that, I'm really tempted to write my own and give
it a real open source license.

Give me a couple of days to think this over.  If I decide to go with writing my
own, I'll close this review bug.  Thanks for the comments.
