Thought I'd look into this: the problem is due to the SVN-specific hack
in the neon configure script to support building against the libexpat.la
from apr-util... libneon.la does not get linked against against
libexpat.la in this case currently, which is a fatal error on AIX.

If you used an out-of-tree shared expat it would work correctly; it's
only for the in-tree expat from apr-util that it will fail.

To fix it without using --disable-shared, you can edit the LIBS line in
neon/src/Makefile to add libexpat.la along with anything else specified
there:

LIBS = ../../apr-util/xml/expat/lib/libexpat.la

I'll check if this is safe to do by default for the next neon release
too.
