Silly, question, but do you have the XML::parser module installed on the machine? If so, you may want to try to re-install it. Just an idea.

I had the same problem on a AIX6.1 system, where the XML::Parser::Ex pat can not find a dependent shared library libexpat.so.O. Same library exists there on a AIX 5.2 system as /usr/lib/libexpat.a -> ../../opt/freeware/lib/libexpat.a. So I got to download and install expat-1.95.7-4.aix5.1.ppc.rp m from http://www-03.ibm.com/systems/p/os/a.../download.html to solve this.
