"You are aware that you have free access to all of the source code involved, right?"

indeed, but alas, I am not a Perl Monk. I am more of a Perl Acolyte wannabe. I did try to run that very test manually, but could not make sense of the output. Here's a sample:

I looked at the 02parse.t code, but could not spot anything.

Being that it seems related to XML parsing, I updated XML::SAX and XML::SAX::Base, in the hopes that it would help. It did not. Ironically, it did fix my original Perl code issue, which was why I was trying to package XML::LibXML in the first place. I'd still like to figure out this problem, though.
