I don’t think it would be a good idea to rely on the system provided libexpat on macOS, as Apple is not exactly fast w.r.t. upgrading their external dependencies and could easily stop updating libraries when the no longer need them (see for example the mess w.r.t. OpenSSL).
Ok, but can't we download expat instead of keeping an old copy in our repisitory?
Having a copy is useful when we modify it. I don't that it is the case here.
