emerge -av1 XML-Parser

I the last update I had several failures due to perl packages missing,
they weren't actually missing, just in incorrect perl version and needed
remerging...

Is there something along the lines of python-updater for perl?

I just remerged the perl packages everytime something complained
(wasn't that much), usually replace :: with - to get the package name ;)

I was a bit more lucky, as the packages that failed for me didn't check
for the modules in configure, but just failed somewhere in the build
with a "XXXX not found" message, so I just ran qfile `locate XXXX` to
get the package...
