    Expat is a dependency of fontconfig (right?), which is linked dynamically. So as I understand it, we don't actually link it into the binary. If that is the case, bumping its minor version makes no difference at all.

    Correct. I've suggested this change as a part of #22708, where the native_expat package being linked statically.

    It is no longer the case. See #22708 (comment).
