Exactly my point. Since it's currently XML_Tree 2.0.0 beta, leave it
that way and move to XML_Tree2 releases. Make the first 2.0.0 stable
release as XML_Tree2 so that people won't get burned by the BC breaks.
Note in the package description for XML_Tree that it is superceded by
XML_Tree2 (not XML_Tree 2.0.0) but has BC breaks.
