c. You should be looking at XML::SAX for this kind of thing. It's effectively an OO layer around XML::Parser (and also several other parsers, such as the nifty XML::LibXML).
Actually it's not so much an OO wrapper as it is an interoperable API that makes it trivial to plug anything into anything else. There is also a SAX wrapper around XML::Parser called XML::SAX::Expat but it doesn't expose too much of XML::Parser's quirks (on purpose).
XML::Parser is on a slow but certain deprecation slope. It is highly recommended that new projects forget about its existence.
