I *think* that CPAN.pm does this:
run Makefile.PL
detect missing dependencies and install them
run Makefile.PL again
make
...
so if you can't 'use XML::SAX' at all then you're fine to continue. If
you can but it's broken, *then* stop. Alternatively, wait for Grant
McLean to fix XML::SAX now that he's aware of the problem :-)

The very latest CPAN::Reporter adds an advanced config option to look at
a file containing a list of regexes to use to figure out whether to skip
CCing authors on reports. Upgrading to that version is on my to-do list
for this evening. I can add XML-Validator-Schema to that file if you
like, but I think it would be better to wait for Grant. After all, if
you hadn't mumbled about the bogus test result no-one would have known
about the underlying problem.
