Isn't this easier for the Perl guys because the Perl core uses C++?

I looked at IBM's XML4C package a while back. A bazillion C++ classes all
over the place. I don't know what it is about C++, but most C++
programmers seem to want to write a class for this and that, the other
thing, their sister, and for their little dog, too. I shook my head at the
beast and haven't looked back.
(figuring that if somebody really wanted XML4C plugged into mod_dav, then
 they can do the work...)
