retitle 445803 xtm does not work with parse::recdescent 1.95

thanks

further evaluation of the test-and-thus-build failure shows that 
the parser doesn't work properly anymore; tests like 05merge now fail 
with error messages like this one:

       ERROR (line 1):  Invalid xxx syntax near "topic[baseNameString =
                       "rumsti"]"
XTM::Path: Invalid syntax around 'topic[baseNameString = "rumsti"]' at 
/tmp/libxtm-perl-0.37/blib/lib/XTM/Path.pm line 486.

the intricate relationship between parse::recdescent and the xtm parser
is something only upstream can deal with properly, but the xtm package 
is marked 'no longer actively maintained'. 

if upstream does not fix this problem, libxtm-perl will not be part of 
the lenny release. 

regards
az
