#75 Make of 1.95.2 fails on MacOS X Server

[Anonymous]

expat 1.95.2.tar.gz distribution
On MacOS X Server 1.2 (Rhapsody 5.6) make
issues an error and halts:

This does not happen with the older version 1.95.1

MacOS X doesn't support the -static option for building
commandline tools - as licrt0.o is not installed.

Solution: in the Makefile in the xmlwf directory, remove
the -static from the LDFLAGS line.

We no longer use -static in Expat 1.95.3, but rely on libtool. Once libtool
works on Mac OS X, everything will be happy.

Re-classifying this
as a 3rd-party bug (libtool on Mac OS X).
