     Description:         User land tool for cleaning up old perl installs


perl-cleaner --help
Usage: /usr/bin/perl-cleaner [options] [ask]
	modules - rebuild perl modules for old installs of perl
	allmodules - rebuild perl modules for any install of perl
	libperl - rebuild anything linked against libperl
	ph-clean - clean out old ph files from a previous perl
	phupdate - update existing ph files, useful after an upgrade to system
parts like the kernel
	phall - clean out old ph files and run phupdate
	all - rebuild modules, libperl linkages, clean ph files, and rebuild them
	reallyall - rebuild modules for any install of perl, libperl linkages,
clean ph files, and rebuild them

	ask - ask for confirmation on each emerge

That's one way. Perl-cleaner can also be found in
/usr/portage/dev-lang/perl/files.

I find it odd that re-emerging XML-Parser didn't work for you; it always
did for me (although I haven't encountered this error recently,
certainly not with Firefox... and I do compile it), and I have surely
had this ...annoying.. issue with XML::Parser often enough to say that.


HTH,
