22 files of code in one directory. Around 500K of diskspace. I.e.,
comparable to expat, which we have in-tree.

No, you can not, AFAIK. At least, I was not able to find drop-in library
replacement. There are some versions here and there (includeing in SuSe
and Debian) but their are not full and not good enough to serve as a

be pretty much custom-made for PHP, why not have it in the tree?
