Unfortunately, the "Embperl-1" package is for Embperl 1
for mod_perl 1 - it won't function with mod_perl 2. Gerald
is working on porting Embperl 2 to a multi-threaded
environment (like Win32) for Apache 2, but it's non-trivial.

I'm not sure what the problem is here - it may be that the
libxml2.dll that you're using is incompatible somehow with
that used to compile Embperl. Did you get the XML::LibXML
from our (theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca) repository? The libxml2.dll
used is under http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppms/scripts/ -
you might try using that if you're not already.
