Attepmts to install XML-Parser-2.36_04 from ttp://intrepid.perlmonk.org/apropos.mingw/mingw+perl/CPAN-module-ports/XML-Parser-updatedbuild/ also failed (seems created with another compiler)

I also cant use PPM for installing this module, cause PPM also needs XML::Parser as prerequisite..

Well, problem was solved with copying XML::Parser from another system with Active Perl installed. SOAP::Lite installed Kinda "Great Microsoft Way of Life"
