Expat 2.2.7 with security fixes has been released / CVE-2018-20843



Hello everyone!


Sorry for the noise if you heard about the release of 2.2.7 about a week
ago through some other channel and maybe even took action, already!

To be quick, there is one DoS fix — for CVE-2018-20843 [1] — and misc
build system fixes.  The change log with details is up at [2].

If you happen to have patches for Expat that are still required with
2.2.7, please send them my way.

Thanks and best



Sebastian
