They mean that the Neon library is trying to dynamically import the expat
symbols. In other words, I built expat statically and neon is not trying to
link to it statically (neon thinks it is linking against a DLL). Not sure
how to fix this just yet. There are probably some preprocessor definitions
that need to be set in the neon build system, but I do not have the time nor
the means to fix the neon build system myself. I'm ALREADY maintaining a
CMake build script for expat since I cannot build it from the command line
hands-free without it (I do not have VC6 installed on my system, and VS9
cannot convert dsw projects from the command line.

Yes, I am using Neon 0.29. I'm using expat version 2.0.1. Keep in mind that
I am not using the win32 installer, I'm using the tarball to build it myself
on Windows. Inside of xmlparse.c, there is indeed an XML_StopParser()
function.

Could you please put the patch in a file and attach it? Thanks.
