Confirmed this bug under Hardy Heron alpha release. It appears that wink
was compiled/linked against an old libexpat version, prior to the ABI
change in expat.

Wink will need to be rebuilt against libexpat.so.1 for the new ABI
changes (assuming wink actually needs to be linked against libexpat at
all).

Do not create a soft link (ln -s) from the newer expat ABI to the old
one (libexpat.so.1 -> libexpat.so.0), as this will produce
unexpected/unpredictable behaviour in the application. In addition,
there could be other apps with similar problems, and the soft link will
mask those and could cause major issues on your system.

The only way to correctly fix this is an updated package. The maintainer
will need to release an updated version to correct this behaviour.
