Hi Galen (and list),
Because it seems that this discussion is tending towards Perl code /
Perl dependencies, I'm "Cc"ing the koha-developers list, In future
followups, I think that I'll remove the "regular" Koha mailing list
from the Cc list, for this discussion.
My comments / questions are below:

Thanks for the feedback. Unfortunately, I tried today (9-Jun-2009) to
install several (many) other XML-related packages that are in the SLES
11 DVD, but it didn't seem to make any difference.
For what it's worth, I found out that "HTTP::OAI", in several of its
".pm" (Perl Module) files, require some XML::LibXML "submodules" (I
don't know the correct word for that). For instance, the METS.pm file
- located at HTTP-OAI-3.21/lib/HTTP/OAI/Metadata/METS.pm - requires
the "XML::LibXML::XPathContext" module.
If I try to install "XML::LibXML::XPathContext" from CPAN, then I get
an error related to utf-16 (Unicode encoding) and umlauts (see
"t/09xpath.t" line below):

I *do* have XML::LibXML installed, from the "perl-XML-LibXML" software
package in the SLES 11 DVD that I installed using the yast tool:
----------------------------------------
myhost:~/HTTP-OAI-3.21/lib/HTTP/OAI/Metadata # rpm -qa | grep -i xml-libxml
perl-XML-LibXML-1.66-1.14
perl-XML-LibXML-Common-0.13-70.7
myhost:~/HTTP-OAI-3.21/lib/HTTP/OAI/Metadata # perl -MXML::LibXML -e
'print $XML::LibXML::VERSION, "\n"'
1.66
----------------------------------------
If I try to install the "XML::LibXML" Perl module from CPAN, then it
tries to install version 1.69 (instead of the existing 1.66) of the
same module, but it fails with the same error regarding utf-16 and
umlauts:
