I didn't get a chance to try on Mac, FreeBSD and Solaris.

Also I guess it has nothing to do with OS but how the
shell/terminal/console/CMD interprets the syntax of the one liner.

Kindly correct me if I am wrong.

BTW currently I use Windoze at work place and Ubuntu @ Home. So soon
planning buy Macbook Pro. Hence wanted to know your feedback on Perl in Mac.

Also not a relevant question to ask here - but has anyone tried installing
Ubuntu on Mac. ;-)

Cheers,
Parag
