Well, you caught me out: I never actually tried just copying all the files and 
setup code from PyXML.  For some reason that never occurred to me.  I was 
having trouble working things so it would beuild under both Win and Linux, but 
looking at the setup.py code in PyXML, I think it handles what I ran into.

I give it a try in 4Suite tonight and report on expat/SF if I run into any 
problems.
