Of course! The whole point of SAX is to get modules to interoperate  
-- a self-respecting module that represents an XML tree should really  
therefore support SAX input and output. XML::LibXML does this through  
its ::SAX::Builder class:

   http://search.cpan.org/~phish/XML-LibXML-1.58/lib/XML/LibXML/SAX/ 
Builder.pod

It's not exactly over documented, but it works just like any other  
SAX handler. What end_document() returns (which is whatever is  
returned by the method that calls it) is the constructed DOM.
