Hmmm, older autoconf version?  Look in config.log what happened and try to
find the part in configure where the check for expat is located and figure
out what it is looking for.  I saw problems (not related to these packages)
where it was checked for versions 1.1, 1.2 and 1.3 and I got 1.4, so the
check failed...
