I have this on all the 7.2 boxes here. I've never seen a fix on this list.

I get this message too.  The output from the above is:
/usr/lib/libexpat.a:      current ar archive
/usr/lib/libexpat.so:     ELF 32-bit LSB shared object, Intel 80386, version
1, not stripped
/usr/lib/libexpat.so.1:   ELF 32-bit LSB shared object, Intel 80386, version

/usr/lib/libexpat.so.1.2: ELF 32-bit LSB shared object, Intel 80386, version
1, not stripped

None of these is a symlink, so the message is correct.  But what is causing
the message?
