One additional question: is the XML parser module included in standard
Perl? Or do for example Cygwin users have to install an additional Perl
module?

Ah, we hit a problem there (discussed on IRC, mirroring it here for
completeness). It seems that Cygwin does not package any non-core modules
for Perl, so we're out of luck for any XML parser. This means that we should
either abandon the idea completely, require users to manually install
XML::LibXML (which seems to be the best offering - depends on libxml2 which
*is* available in Cygwin) or add it to the rockbox cygwin mirror (this means
of course that someone would have to package it).

I'm running cygwin perl for an unrelated purpose and my installation supports Expat:
  use XML::Parser
with no extra work.
