This would probably be more appropriate for an apache list, but...
I don't know if this has changed over the years, but in the current
httpd, expat is pulled in by apr-util. So,
`./srclib/apr-util/configure --help' will show you the
--with-expat=DIR option. Options from the top-level are just passed
down, so you can just pass --with-expat=/usr/local or whatever in
addition to your other flags. It should try to find a system expat
installation before falling back to the bundled expat even if you
don't pass any options.
