Summary: Install does not install expat_external.h

Initial Comment:
The install process does not seem to properly install
./lib/expat_external.h (though it seems to try).  This
is Expat version 1.95.8 on Solaris 9.

Steps to reproduce:

% ./configure --prefix=/tmp/expat
% gmake
% gmake -n install
% gmake install

Output from "gmake -n" is:

/bin/bash ./conftools/mkinstalldirs /tmp/expat/lib
/tmp/expat/include
/bin/bash ./libtool --mode=install conftools/install-sh
-c libexpat.la /tmp/expat/lib/libexpat.la
conftools/install-sh -c -m 644 ./lib/expat.h
./lib/expat_external.h /tmp/expat/include
/bin/bash ./conftools/mkinstalldirs /tmp/expat/bin
/tmp/expat/man/man1
/bin/bash ./libtool --mode=install conftools/install-sh
-c xmlwf/xmlwf /tmp/expat/bin/xmlwf
conftools/install-sh -c -m 644 ./doc/xmlwf.1
/tmp/expat/man/man1


Looks like install only takes a source file and a list
of destination directories rather than a list of files
and a single destination.

Apologies if this is redundant... only other references
to this issue I could find are at:

http://mail.libexpat.org/pipermail/expat-discuss/2004-August/001521.html

Changelog would appear to state that it had been added
to the install process (Fri Jul 16 2004).
