gnu: python2-cython: Fix failing test. 

This started failing because Python no longer bundles libexpat since
commit d1659c0fb2.

;; builds of Python. It is unaware that the Python "config"

;; Python 3, and falls back to sysconfig.get_config_var('LIBDIR'),
;; which works fine, because that is where the shared library is.
;;
;; It also appears to be unaware that the Makefile in Demos/embed
;; already unconditionally pass the static library location to GCC,
;; after checking sysconfig.get_config_var('LIBPL).
;;
;; The effect is that the linker is unable to resolve libexpat
;; symbols when building for Python 2, because neither the Python 2
;; shared library nor Expat is available. To fix it, we can either
;; add Expat as an input and make it visible to the linker, or just
;; prevent it from overriding the Python shared library location.
;; The end result is identical, so we take the easy route.
