You are right that the data as stated isn't XML, but if the OP is willing to settle for 
    <argument><img src="test.jpg"/></argument>

[download]
(Note the ending slash of the img tag) - you could go ahead with something as simple as XML::Simple, provided you're willing to check the type of the node.
