You may need to install Expat manually, but once it's in place you can
fire up the CPAN shell:

    % sudo perl -MCPAN -e shell

....and then just install the bundle:

    cpan> install Bundle::XML

....and come back when it finishes. :)

The cpan shell doesn't seem to be perfect at resolving dependencies, so
you end up installing one module which will correctly direct you to get
one or a series of others, but occasionally a dependency will be missed
and you'll get a message like "couldn't find Lib/Module.pm". Usually you
can fix this by just installing Lib::Module (or whatever) and then trying
the original one again. It's all almost but not quite automatic.
