For some reason XML::Parser::Lite doesn't like the regexp you are using (the parser is regexp-based, and there is some really scary regexp stuff going on inside).

This works on my 5.8.1 (which otherwise gives me yet a different error, a SegFault):

my $name= join '/', split /::/, $Names{$pkg};

If it doesn't work for you, try something else, like having the file name built outside of the parser loop:

#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict; 

use XML::Parser::Lite;
 
my $doc = "<foo/>\n";
print "'$doc'\n";
 
# you could of course build the file name from the package name here
# instead of just having it hard-coded
my %Names = (
        foo => { file => 'Foo/Bar.pm', package => 'Foo::Bar'},
);
 
my @stack;
my $parser = XML::Parser::Lite->new(
        Handlers => {
                Start => sub {
                        shift;
print "Start: @_\n";
 
                        my $pkg = shift;
                        eval {
                                require $Names{$pkg}->{file};
                        }; if ($@) {
                                die "Cannot require ' $Names{$pkg}->{f
+ile}' ($pkg)\n";
                        }
 
                        my $x = $Names{$pkg}->{package}->new(@_);
 
                        push @stack, $x;
                },
                End => sub {
                        shift;
print "End:   @_\n";
 
                        pop @stack if @stack;
                },
        },
);
 
$parser->parse($doc);
print "Finally done\n";
