The modifications to expat, pyexpat and _elementtree are available for
weeks. I just hadn't have time to create proper patches yet.

I have pushed all changes from defusedexpat to a clone of Python's hg
repository. You can find the clone at https://bitbucket.org/tiran/xmlbomb/ .

The repository also contains a quick draft for a XML security API.
https://bitbucket.org/tiran/xmlbomb/commits/c033abd0f7747c5b215e1b32f90372dd96e397ba

I have to port tests from my other branch and add tests for the new API,
too.
