[Expat-discuss] possible build issue fix

  One of the build problems that keeps coming up is that some versions
of GCC don't support the -fexceptions option.  If you are using GCC on
a platform for which this is the case, could you please try building
Expat using the configure script at this URL and let me know how it
works for you?  I think I've added the right thing to get this
auto-detected, but I don't have a GCC without -fexceptions support.

  Thanks!
