Subject: Expat regression fix for master branch
Date: Mon, 12 Sep 2016 17:35:15 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160912213515.GA15911@jasmine> (raw)


[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 369 bytes --]

This patch applies an upstream patch for a regression caused by the fix 
for CVE-2016-0718.

Apparently, the bug only manifests when building with -DXML_UNICODE,
which I don't think our package does.

Bug report:
https://sourceforge.net/p/expat/bugs/539/
