That should do it, since there should be an old version sitting in
:MacPerl �:lib.

Yes, although you need to know the full "path" to the file in CPAN,
and the exact name:
cpan> install GAAS/HTML-Parser-2.??.tar.gz
You'll need to find out the exact version number of the last non-XS
HTML::Parser (looks like it was 2.25).

That's the only one. Time to ask on the list.

The current version of libwww-perl was released around November 17.
The first version of HTML-Parser-XS was around November 4, and it
replaced HTML-Parser on December 14. So I'm guessing no, there will
be no problems.
