Initial Comment:
When I install expat 2.0.0, it shows me the following 
error always.  but expat 1.9.5 is fine.

camelot# make install
make: Fatal error in reader: Makefile, line 48: 
Unexpected end of line seen

47:ifndef INSTALL_ROOT
48:INSTALL_ROOT=$(DESTDIR)

What happens if you check out from CVS and then run make-release.sh to
build
your own tarball? Does that work? If no response I'll close this issue.

Sorry, it's Solaris 9 :-).  But you get the idea - same 
error as other people.  I also tried './configure --prefix 
=/usr/local', no difference.

Changed
ifndef INSTALL_ROOT
INSTALL_ROOT=$(DESTDIR)
endif
to
INSTALL_ROOT=$(prefix)

and it put eveything in /usr/local/usr/local.  Perhaps a 
Solaris/GNU make syntax problem.  Tried GNU make, no luck.

Could you please try a checkout from CVS.
If you still have a problem, then maybe "make" on your
system is too old, or otherwise different.

I'm having the same problem building in a Solaris 10 on 
Sparc environment.  I'm using 2.0.0 from a .gz tarball.

In which environment do you try to build expat?
Is this a checkout from CVD or did you download the .gz archive?
