I too had problems. I don't recall all the details, but I did find that
the file:

/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.0/XML/Twig.pm

was lacking a required '1' return value. If you add a line that says:

1;

before the '__END__' in that file, that may help.

This is with the redhat supplied rpm for XML::Twig, which is
'perl-XML-Twig-3.05-3'.

If I remember right, I had the problems you outlined below when I tried to
install XML::Twig from source, but I got the redhat rpm version going with
the hack above.

I'd like to hope it isn't RedHat that have caused this mess.
