Expat conflicts (Score:1)
A common problem people encountered with Expat was that Apache included it by default. So if you tried to load XML::Parser under mod_perl Apache would segfault with a symbol clash. So the right solution is for the system to include a shared libexpat used by everyone that wants it.
Most Linux distributions provide Expat as a package and ActivePerl provides Expat in the distribution (PPM needs it). When I was using Solaris an HPUX, I found that binary packages were not hard to come by.
PS: re the thanks for the FAQ - you're welcome.
