Ok, the initial documents they linked to mentioned the four .o files 
and not a lib. The release 1.95.7 download that I'm currently looking 
at does appear to link elements into a libexpat.

I'm inclined to try experiments with configuring it to install into
/Library/Application Support/Expat/expat-1.95.7/

Mmm, an OSX setup document should be added somewhere under 
alephModular/documents and a note to look there in that directory 
should be added to the README.txt...
Perhaps create alephModular/documents/setup (installation?) and within 
that we can have setup_macosx.txt, setup_unix.txt, setup_win32.txt and 
the like?
