21 years ago Expat doesn't build anymore on Mac OS 9. The problem is that the new expat.h has a couple of functions returning an "enum XML_Status", but that enum is declared only further down in expat.h and the Metrowerks compiler chokes on this.
It's easy enough to fix (either moving the routines down or moving the enum declaration up), but as I seem to recall that this file is imported from the expat distribution I'm not sure whether that's a good idea, or something else needs to be done.
