Well, first off, you might want to make sure that your LibXML pm is
where you think it is relatively, first off make sure that really is not
in perl's include path, if it is then make sure its not blah/LibXML.pm
rather than XML/LibXML.pm or some such.

You could always push the path containing the module onto Perl's @INC
array (I think, I've not used perl for a while). If all else fails, just
use the -I switch on the commandline.
