Todd - Don't give up!  I am pretty sure you are using HTML::Parser version
2.XX.  The relevant change (as best I can tell from the Changelog) occurred
at version 3.00.  So my prediction is that if you upgrade to HTML::Parser
version 3.08 t/GDB.t will work just fine.

And yes I do think including a required version of HTML::Parser in GDB.pm is
the way to go.
