[Buildroot] What is the best way to deactivate XML Parser (expat) for ARM build?

[Arun Reddy]

Robert,

Thank you very much for that information! I was almost about to try to do a
build for at91sam9260 or a previous version just to be certain. I did make
expat, then after that finished I went ahead and proceeded with the build by
typing make. I got past the error above about libexpat, but I ended up
getting to an error saying:

Checking for XML::Parser...configure: error: XML::Parser perl module is
required for intltool.

Was this supposed to be resolved with make expat as well? Or does this
require a different package to be passed into make? Thanks again.
