From manual page: http://www.php.net/xml.installation

The page says that Expat is bundled with PHP but it does not seem to be any more for years now. The bundle was resolve in commit 73415c9e0114d8ab72cf30b0f9e6e2ce6e073986. The earliest related release tag I find is "php-5.0.0b1". The shell command I used was:

# git tag --contains 73415c9e0114d8ab72cf30b0f9e6e2ce6e073986 | sed 's,^,refs/tags/,' | xargs -n1 git --no-pager log --format='%ci -- %D' -1 | fgrep php- | sort

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php

> The page says that Expat is bundled with PHP […]

Actually it says:

| If you compile PHP as a module for Apache 1.3.9 or later, PHP
| will automatically use the bundled expat library from Apache. If
| you don't want to use the bundled expat library, […]

This does not imply, that libexpat would be bundled with PHP.
