[Ltib] expat: upgrading from 1.95.8 to 2.0.1

[Robert P. J. Day]

  since the project i'm on requires expat, i took a quick look at the
effort in packaging expat-2.0.1 available here:

  http://sourceforge.net/projects/expat/

the current version, 1.95.8, incorporates the following patches:

  Patch0          : %{name}-DESTDIR-%{version}.patch
  Patch1          : %{name}-ac_fixes.patch
  Patch2          : expat-1.95.8-man1dir.patch

i can verify that both patches Patch0 and Patch2 are already
incorporated into expat-2.0.1, while some of Patch1 might still be
applicable but i don't know enough to be precise.

  the changelogs for 1.95.8 -> 2.0.1:
