XML::LibXML version 1.69
libxml2 version 2.6.23

It appears to likely be related to the version of libxml2 (or
something else environmental) as I tried the same thing with two other
versions on different (virtual)boxes (2.6.32 and 2.6.26) and it worked
fine.

My attempt at installing libxml2 in a custom location and getting
XML::LibXML to link and work with it failed miserably so I'll probably
just need to get a sysadmin to upgrade it for me :-/

Thanks for the nudge in the right direction.
