This is a very frustrating bug generally caused by Perl upgrades. Unfortunately, we're still not beyond the need for perl-cleaner --all due to some Portage bugs with resolving the rebuild order.
Hi Sam, I should not this happened despite running "perl-cleaner --all" prior to emerging. Did you see my first comment arguing that a direct(!) build dependency on dev-perl/XML-Parser is missing in net-misc/networkmanager? What do you think?
