I wanted but I have no enough karma for it. ext/xml extension needs
additional re-work in Expat detection logic too if we want to provide
support for different Expat system version (not bundled one) too.
Another feature I have already coded and would add to ext/xml is the iconv
support. It allows automagically re-encode data to UTF-8 from any encoding
supported by iconv (libiconv or glibc) if it is specified in XML header
but uknown to Expat itself.
