Summary: expat_win32bin StaticLibs are wrong version

Initial Comment:
Installed version of expat: expat_win32bin_1_95_8.exe,
which contains both dynamic and static versions of the
library.

Linking against StaticLibs/libexpatw.lib and
StaticLibs/libexpat.lib produce the following errors

base.lib(XMLReader_Expat.obj) : error LNK2001:
unresolved external symbol _XML_ResumeParser
base.lib(XMLReader_Expat.obj) : error LNK2001:
unresolved external symbol _XML_StopParser

I suspected that the static libs were out of date, so I
investigated a little... the files are dated September
06, 2002, 6:04:54 PM.

2002 is pretty old, so I'm guessing this is not new to
1.95.8.

A temporary fix is to link against the multi-threaded
(libexpatwMT.lib) static library, which seems to work
just fine.

In later versions of MS VC++, the single-threaded runtime
library is not supported anymore. Expat 2.0 will be the last
release including the single-threaded static lib in the
Windows binary distribution.
