Comment(by derek@…):

 I received a similar error to the OP.  But I am also using macports perl
 5.14 as my active version, with 5.12.3 installed alongside but inactive.
 For me the correct path to p5-xml-parser was in the @INC of perl5.12, but
 not of perl5.14.  I manually added

 {{{
 INTLTOOL_PERL=/opt/local/bin/perl5.12
 }}}

 to the ./configure call of libgsf and then libgsf configured and built
 apparently correctly.  Before making that change I had

 {{{
 checking for gmsgfmt... /opt/local/bin/msgfmt
 checking for perl... /opt/local/bin/perl
 checking for perl >= 5.8.1... 5.14.1
 checking for XML::Parser... configure: error: XML::Parser perl module is
 required for intltool
 }}}

 and after making the change I had

 {{{
 checking for gmsgfmt... /opt/local/bin/msgfmt
 checking for perl... /opt/local/bin/perl5.12
 checking for perl >= 5.8.1... 5.12.3
 checking for XML::Parser... ok
 }}}

 and libgsf configured and built just fine.  (note I didn't change the
 portfile, I just called ./configure manually)
