The package net-misc/neon-0.26.1-r1 was built with -expat but 'pkg-config
--libs neon' still tells the system to link with -lexpat. This is actually an
upstream bug, as usage of expat by neon depends on its existence at neon
installation time, something clearly not wanted. Also, configure --with-expat
is supported but not --without-expat.

I will report this now upstream. When it's fixed upstream, the ebuild simply
needs to set --with or --without-expat according to the use flag.

No, I figured outz that there's a typo in the ebuild preventing it all from
working already: the line 

myconf="${myconf} --with-xml2"

should read

myconf="${myconf} --with-libxml2"
