Thanks for the reply Dieter. Working with heterogenous distributed systems proves to me time and again that there are more software/hardware variations than I could imagine. The machines without xml.dom.ext are machines one which I can compute (Condor) but have only local temporary storage so I'll need to find a way to pass the module along with my distributed job.
