This is the same issue as https://bugs.python.org/issue35184

I can reproduce this issue by uncommenting the pyexpat line in Setup.dist and compiling.

The issue is with -DXML_POOR_ENTROPY=1.  The equals character causes the line to be incorrectly interpreted as a macro definition by makesetup.  This results in an invalid Makefile output.

I've submitted a PR, but a quick work-around is to remove the "=1".  It is not necessary.
