X11R6.8.2 can't be compiled in 5.3 Release?

[Xu Qiang]

Hi, 

A dependency problem is harassing me: In the process of compiling, it requires fontconfig to be installed first. Yet, when I downloaded fontconfig (ver2.2.3) src and compile. But an error stops the configure and says it can't find expat library. But yesterday I just downloaded and installed expat v1.95.8. (I did it by './configure', 'make', and 'make install'). Anyone knows what is wrong? 

thanks,
