The TIGR parser in bioperl 1.4 doesn't parse the coordset files, it  
parses the full-fledged
TIGR xml releases. Jason wrote an unpublished parser for the coordsets,  
which while
similar files are different enough to really need a different parser.

One thing, is that IIRC, the coordsets do not contain any sequence  
data, so you'll need to
also lookup the actual sequence.
