I don't know. As a matter of fact, XML-Parser is installed, it only
refers to the old version of Perl, while sablotron configuration checks
for the new version. So adding it to sablotron dependancies doesn't
solve the problem.

head -n 20 /usr/portage/app-text/sablotron/sablotron-0.97.ebuild

<snip>
DEPEND=">=dev-libs/expat-1.95.6-r1
        dev-perl/XML-Parser"

It's already a dependency.

Maybe one could modify the sablotron or perl ebuild to check for this
inconsistency and reemerge XML-Parser if needed, but I don't know how to
do it.

I've just filed bug 24287 about this.
