+- according to upstream changelog:
+       - Improved ability to build without the configure-generated
+          expat_config.h header.  This is useful for applications
+          which embed Expat rather than linking in the library.
+
+  because I am not exactly sure about implication of this, rather use 
+  -DXML_HAVE_VISIBILITY in CFLAG_VISIBILITY in expat-visibility.patch
