Them's fightin' words!  XML support comes with the standard Python
distribution.  There's also an upgrade package called PyXML
(http://download.sourceforge.net/pyxml/) which provides some
accelerators.

I just installed PyXML, which "contains a validating XML parser, an
implementation of the SAX and DOM programming interfaces, an interface
to the Expat parser (and the Expat parser itself), and a C helper
module that can speed up xmllib.py by a factor of 5.  There's even
documentation!" [from the README file].

What was it that you wanted to do with XML support?
