You probably need to set CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS so that the compiler can
find the expat headers and library. If you have expat in /usr/local,
you probably need to do:

export CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/include"
export LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/lib"

Take a look at config.log to see more details about what is failing.
