Good info, and I appreciate all who've responded to my post.
The reason for my inquiry had to do when I was testing and
using the Date::Calc module. I was getting all kinds of warnings
about certain variables (inside the package) not being initialized
yet (warning in concatenation). I only got those warnings, however,
when using -d:ptkdb ... so maybe the problem is with the ptkdb
module.
