You can pass the error_context option to XML::Twig->new to get the 
line(s) where the problem happens. See the docs for XML::Parser. The 
XML::Twig FAQ also has an entry on how to store this information:
http://www.xmltwig.com/xmltwig/XML-Twig-FAQ.html#Q17

You could also adapt http://perlmonks.org/index.pl?node_id=427722 with 
additional ways to fix the XML, maybe using XML::Twig instead of 
XML::Parser to be able to fix more types of errors.
