expat upgrade patch needs testing

I just submitted a patch to upgrade the bundled expat to version 2.2.0:
<https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=127069>

I've done some testing on FreeBSD and Windows.  Unfortunately I can't
test Linux at the moment.  After a Virtualbox upgrade, both of my Linux
VMs panic the host system when I try start them in Virtualbox.

Sorry for the poor wording. I was addressing Don and I meant "Kay AND me 
and a bunch of other people have access".

Anyway, Don has now been granted access to ooo-extras.

Hi Andrea  --

I already have access. I just tried bootstrap again and all is good. I'm
not sure why the URL1 for this failed.  I can upload to ooo-extras when
I get a moment, or someone else can. OK, back to building. :)

Just built on Linux 64. Both OK for me, with the current trunk 
(including the recently merged gbuild).

Kay, me and a bunch of other people have access to ooo-extras and can 
give you upload access (for now or for the future). We just need your 
SourceForge username.

I don't have upload access, but I suggest that you just try again.

Expat isn't something that we checked into svn under ext_sources. The
expat project lives on Sourceforge, so if it was working before it
should still work, modulo transient Sourceforge mirror issues.  Expat
isn't something that we checked into svn under ext_sources, modulo
Sourceforge transient mirror issues.

./bootstrap broke for me because

is not available on Sourceforge. Can you upload? Thanks.

If you get through the build, that's a pretty good test.  During the
build saxparser uses expat to read the .xml files for all of the
locales.

The other thing that expat seems to get used for is the tree view of
help topics.

I can probably do a build tomorrow to test with CentOS 6.8.
Assuming I get a successful build, what else do I need to do to test?

I found that if I set the number of processors to 1 for my Linux VMs,
then I can get them to run.  I was able to build and test this patch on
CentOS 7 and Ubuntu 12.
