I'm a Perl novice, but here's what works for me on Windows XP:
1. Install ActivePerl
2. Start the ActivePerl Package Manager and run the following commands:
  install dbi
  install dbd-sqlite2
  install time-modules
  install config-ini
  install text-glob
  install xml-sax-expat

3. Then create or edit /Perl/site/lib/XML/SAX/ParserDetails.ini so that it 
includes:

[XML::SAX::Expat]
http://xml.org/sax/features/namespaces = 1
http://xml.org/sax/features/validation = 1
http://xml.org/sax/features/external-general-entities = 1
http://xml.org/sax/features/external-parameter-entities = 1

The installed dbd-sqlite2 package seems to work fine.
