Summary: expat should check XML version attribute

Initial Comment:
In the XML spec it says that the parser may throw a 
parser error if the version is not "1.0" in the XML 
declaration. This is also what IE6 does.

Here's a patch for this. It was diffed against mozilla.org's 
expat version, but I hope it can still be applied.

Thanks,  -Håkan

Thanks for the upload.

Now, the question is: Since it is not a requirement to
throw an error, but just optional behaviour, is there
a compelling reason to add this to Expat?
