perlPackages.XMLParser: Work around cross-compilation regression Since 2.44_01, the behaviour for `check_lib` in their `Makefile.PL` has been "fixed" to fail when the `assert_lib` function fails to build the test. * https://github.com/toddr/XML-Parser/commit/2bc1e90c04220a04a0b40d1047d464bc55f56210 Now, this wouldn't be so bad, since it's good to actually test what stuff is being compiled against. Except that *something* is wonky with the cross-compilation build-time Perl. ``` Undefined subroutine &File::Temp::mktemp called at inc/Devel/CheckLib.pm line 236. ``` As far as I know, this is a built-in function from Perl. * https://perldoc.perl.org/File/Temp.html Though, something *else* is wrong with `Checklib.pm`. Side-stepping the issue by (eww) shelling out to `mktemp`, we get these errors: ``` /nix/store/eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee-armv7l-unknown-linux-gnueabihf-binutils-2.31.1/bin/armv7l-unknown-linux-gnueabihf-ld: assertlib_src1_0.553056903257133: file not recognized: file truncated collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status -I/nix/store/eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee-expat-2.2.8-armv7l-unknown-linux-gnueabihf-dev/include -L/nix/store/eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee-expat-2.2.8-armv7l-unknown-linux-gnueabihf/lib -lexpat /nix/store/eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee-armv7l-unknown-linux-gnueabihf-binutils-2.31.1/bin/armv7l-unknown-linux-gnueabihf-ld: assertlib_src2_0.262169388446154: file not recognized: file truncated collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status Can't link/include C library 'expat.h', 'expat', aborting. ``` Meanwhile, the actual build, while building the library, seemingly has no issues building using those paths. `¯\_(ツ)_/¯`

Subject: [PATCH] [HACK]: Assumes Expat paths are good.
The `check_lib` check fails with the cross-compilation build platform's
Perl, since apparently `mktemp` is missing...
Even then, side-stepping the issue, it seems it is not actually enough
to work, as the compilation fails.
