        !             3:           of XML_StopParser() was not handled properly; if the parser was
        !             4:           stopped and the handler set to NULL, the parser would segfault.
        !             5:         - Fixed bug #1690883: Expat failed on EBCDIC systems as it assumed

        !            50:           convention used by the Expat API; this macro should be used
        !            51:           to annotate prototypes and definitions of callback
        !            52:           implementations in code compiled with a calling convention
        !            53:           other than the default convention for the host platform.

        !            55:           expat_config.h header.  This is useful for applications
        !            56:           which embed Expat rather than linking in the library.

        !            76:           (may not retain).
