I need a little more info.
Which Effect in particular are you trying?
  
The main one I've been trying is render function, but I get the same error for all of the effects.  (With the exception of render grid)

Are you on PPC or Intel?
  
Intel
If on PPC, did you compiled pyXML yourself or did you install the  
precompiled binary?
How long ago did you installed them? (I uploaded a new package  
something like 2 weeks ago)
  
I'm on Intel.  I downloaded PyXML-0.8.4.tar.gz from sourceforge.net two days ago.

Can you check if you have a folder named _xmlplus in the directory / 
Library/Python/2.3/site-packages)? 
No there isn't a folder name that.
In a Terminal type:
	ls /Library/Python/2.3/site-packages
Can you give me the output of the commands (in Terminal):
	which python
and
	python -V

ls /Library/Python/2.3/site-packages yeilds:
