Hi Thomas, this warning only appears if you require 'XML/Unserializer.php' (that is, you are going to unserialize a xml string) and only if you have set your error level to show warnings at the output.
So, it won't make the package unusable for most users, because if an user wants to return a xml document it can be done without noticing any warning. Hence the severity of the bug shouldn't be 'serious'. I'll forward this bug upstream and try to work on a patch by myself.
