In this way, I can go back to the original version installed 
initially, but not to the one exist just before installing the latest 
version. Right?
Is there any way installing modules of a specific version from CPAN?  
Does CPAN keeps old versions?  (sorry, it's getting out of scope from 
this mailing list.)

I have CodeWarrior 4 and tried making XS following the instruction 
you mentioned.
I couldn't find the tutorial general enough to make the XS for HTML::
Parser.

Does anybody else know another tutorial?

Isn't there any conflict with LWP by downgrading?

I joined the list. Will ask the list after a few more tries.
