Hmph, I used to build with NO_EXPAT long ago and don't remember running
into this, but it is clearly broken now. I wonder what bizarre
combination of leftover build products made it work. ;)

I was confused at first why this is in lib-httpd.sh and not 5540, but I

lib-httpd.sh. I learn something new every day about our test
infrastructure.
