It looks like the current version of XML::DOM in CPAN is 1.44.  You can 
try forcing it to download a different version with the following from the 
cpan prompt:

 	get TJMATHER/XML-DOM-1.43.tar

(make / test / install should all work, using the longer name)

Otherwise, I'd try updating your CPAN mirror, and see if it's just that 
you're using one that isn't being maintained.

... if that still fails, try posting to perlmonks:
