I'm happy to be able to report that the latest versions of libxml2 and
libxslt from xmlsoft compile beautifully on 10.2.3. XML::LibXML has
some problems with OSX however, and I think that 1.51 is the version
you should hunt down. The latest XML::LibXSLT works fine, (and with
these and a few other modules in place XML::Handler::Axpoint runs like
a dream).
On the subjet of XS modules: is anyone else seeing the same nonsense
that I'm seeing with DBD::SQLite? It makes without incident, but dies
with a bus error when the insert tests are performed. More precisely...

Version 0.22 seems to have the same difficulty.
