Sure there is.  Drag :site_perl:HTML:Parser.pm (or wherever it got 
installed), and whatever else HTML::Parser installed to the Trash. 
On my Linux box all I see is Parser.pm.

In order to attempt to build the latest HTML::Parser, you need a C 
compiler, MPW, and you need to read Arved Sandstrom's tutorial on how 
to build XS modules, which you can find at 
http://www.macperl.com/depts/Tutorials/.   I believe that it's now 
possible to build XS with MrC, the free compiler that comes with MPW, 
but I'm not sure.  You may need CodeWarrior.  I haven't tried because 
I don't have a MacOS C compiler, and I don't know for sure if 
HTML::Parser will build, but it probably should.

There are two other things you can do.  One is to "downgrade" to the 
last HTML::Parser that was pure Perl (in other words, avoid the 
HTML-Parser-3.x series).  The other is to ask on the MacPerl mailing 
list (info at www.macperl.com) and see if someone will build it and 
put it on the MacPerl Module Porters site, http://pudge.net/mmp.
