 Here's the output from the above command:
 {{{
 /opt/local/lib/perl5/5.8.9/darwin-2level
 /opt/local/lib/perl5/5.8.9
 /opt/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.9/darwin-2level
 /opt/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.9
 /opt/local/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.9/darwin-2level
 /opt/local/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.9
 /opt/local/lib/perl5/vendor_perl
 .
 }}}

 I managed to fix it though.
 I noticed I only had perl 5.8 installed and not perl5. So I installed
 perl5. Still didn't work. Then I did what devans suggested:
 {{{
 $ sudo port -fn upgrade p5-xml-parser
 }}}
 After that it worked like a charm.
 Thanks!
