[Bioperl-l] testable XML::Writer whereabouts

[Peter Leopold]

I'm trying to build 1.0alpha on RedHat 7.1, perl 5.6.0, 
but I can't find a usable version of XML::Writer. 

In bioperl-1.0alpha build directory:
# perl Makefile.PL
Generated sub tests. go make show_tests to see available subtests
External Module XML::Writer, Parsing + writing of XML documents,
 is not installed on this computer.
  The Bio::SeqIO::game,Bio::Variation::* in Bioperl needs it for
Bio::Variation code, GAME parser

A CPAN search of "XML::Writer" gives
XML-Writer-0.4 by David Megginson Released April 2000 
	XML::Writer Perl extension for writing XML documents. 
While it builds without error it dumps core during 'make test'.
Any thoughts?
