It's on the PAUSE modules list, I'm trying to get maintainer-ship of the
package if I can't get in contact with the maintainer. I have to be
patient though ... which I'm not a fan of :D

I have a bunch of fixes for HTML::Tree, which I'm the CPAN maintainer
for now, and XML::TreeBuilder, which are tightly coupled, so I'm holding
back on releasing them until I can get them both updated at the same
time.

FYI you can track the changes to these two modules at
http://github.com/jfearn, but they haven't been through CPANTS yet, so
it might be wise to wait.

FWIW I haven't applied these changes in Fedora ATM.

Cheers, Jeff.
