Summary: wrong bug description (and fix) for #1690883

Initial Comment:
Changes file for release 2.0.1 incorrectly reports 

- Fixed bug #1690883: Expat failed on EBCDIC systems as it assumed some character constants to be ASCII encoded.

Unfortunately bug 1690883 is not related to EBCDIC encoding (as we've just found out on our z/OS system) but , according to the bug database , 

[ 1690883 ] Expat rejects xml: prefix with "unbound prefix" error

2.0.1 is still not working on EBCDIC systems (initial <? is not recognised if coded in EBCDIC) 

Thanks
