Summary: cmake support

Initial Comment:
Hi, 

the append patch adds cmake support to expat original used for building dbus on windows. The cmake support has been introduced in 2010 March and has reached stable state. 

The advantage of cmake is that it covers several compiler environments 

 Borland Makefiles           = Generates Borland makefiles.
 MSYS Makefiles              = Generates MSYS makefiles.
 MinGW Makefiles             = Generates a make file for use with
                               mingw32-make.
 NMake Makefiles             = Generates NMake makefiles.
 NMake Makefiles JOM         = Generates JOM makefiles.
 Unix Makefiles              = Generates standard UNIX makefiles.
 Visual Studio 10            = Generates Visual Studio 10 project files.
 Visual Studio 10 Win64      = Generates Visual Studio 10 Win64 project
                               files.
 Visual Studio 6             = Generates Visual Studio 6 project files.
 Visual Studio 7             = Generates Visual Studio .NET 2002 project
                               files.
 Visual Studio 7 .NET 2003   = Generates Visual Studio .NET 2003 project
                               files.
 Visual Studio 8 2005        = Generates Visual Studio .NET 2005 project
                               files.
 Visual Studio 8 2005 Win64  = Generates Visual Studio .NET 2005 Win64
                               project files.
 Visual Studio 9 2008        = Generates Visual Studio 9 2008 project files.
 Visual Studio 9 2008 Win64  = Generates Visual Studio 9 2008 Win64 project
                               files.
 Watcom WMake                = Generates Watcom WMake makefiles.
 CodeBlocks - MinGW Makefiles= Generates CodeBlocks project files.
 CodeBlocks - NMake Makefiles= Generates CodeBlocks project files.
 CodeBlocks - Unix Makefiles = Generates CodeBlocks project files.
 Eclipse CDT4 - MinGW Makefiles
                             = Generates Eclipse CDT 4.0 project files.
 Eclipse CDT4 - NMake Makefiles
                             = Generates Eclipse CDT 4.0 project files.
 Eclipse CDT4 - Unix Makefiles
                             = Generates Eclipse CDT 4.0 project files.

This makes it possible to reduce the numbers of build systems used by expat and will increase the number of support compilers

Seems non-intrusive. If you can update it for current CVS HEAD (release
2.1.0 being prepared), I'll consider it for inclusion.
