 Yes, there's a separate package for pyexpat, but apparently it gets
 built as part of the standard Python modules, so it's included in the
 default test coverage.  I'm using pyexpat so I haven't risked
 installing 2.6.5 and rebuilding pyexpat to see if the separate package
 is similarly affected.  (But I can try testing this tomorrow in a VM
 image.)
