Just had this problem.  To solve:

    cat -vE somescript.pl

That will show non-printing characters (-v) and the end of line will be indicated with 
a dollar
sign (-E).  If you see a ^M before the end of line, you have saved the file in DOS 
mode.  To fix
it, use an inplace edit:

    perl -pi -e 's/\r//g' somescript.pl

Just be sure to back up the file first!
