You are right, there is a bug. Clearly, no one has ever built Expat for 
a UTF-16 based
application on a Unix system. Filemap.h is incomplete, as it does not 
differentiate
between wchar_t and ushort, as the rest of Expat does. unixfilemap.c 
should provide
two version of the filemap function, but I am not sure if open(), mmap() 
and munmap()
have UTF-16 versions.

I suggest you file a bug report, and if you so feel inclined, provide a 
patch.
Its a community supported project after all.

I think you can just build the libs using the buildlib and installlib 
targets.
