Summary: Windows DLL build with DEF file

Initial Comment:
This patch changes the Windows build (under 
VC++) to using DEF files, so that the export
table for the Dlls remains binary compatible.

It is based on the export table in Expat 1.95.2,
extracted from the binary distribution Dll.
Four exported functions have been added
to the end of that table for release 1.95.5.

The attached zip archive DefBuild.zip contains
two DEF files, one for the expat project, and the 
other for the expatw project. Just add each file to
the corresponding project in VC++.

There is also a small patch for xmlparse.c 
required - included in the zip archive.

Please test and provide feedback.

This was checked in some time ago.

It seems to build fine for me on Windows; I'm not sure what 
the right way to test this is beyond making sure that finishes 
without error.  Perhaps a Windows programmer can suggest 
something; my Windows expertise is fairly low.
