Subject: non-XML plists now outnumber XML
Mac OS 10.4's CFPreferences defaults to using the binary plist format which Mac::PropertyList can't read. Xcode projects are stored in the old-style (pre-XML) plist format, which Mac::PropertyList also can't read. Running the files through plutil can help with this problem (slowly!), but another approach would be to call into the plist parser in CoreFoundation instead.
Try the initial binary plist reader in 1.31_01.
