Excellent! Sorry again that it took so much effort.

The oddly named DOMDocument test is actually a test of your unicode
system - it iterates over all unicode characters defined in XML 1.0
that can be used to begin an element name and attempts to create an
XML document with a single element that begins with that character.
So when this fails it means that something is not configured correctly
for using unicode.
It is included in the FAQ:
C. Unicode Support
==================
C.1 Why do a bunch of tests fail in t/DOMDocument.t?
- If they are 662..723, try setting your LC_CTYPE environment
variable to something besides the default value of "C", such as:
export LC_CTYPE=en_US
- Otherwise, are you using Perl-5.6.0 or greater?
Cheers,
