Are you sure PATH is the same in bash 3 and 4? You only showed the PATH from bash 4. Just out of curiosity, what does perl -e 'print $^X' print in those two situations? Also, try running for i in $(echo $PATH | sed -r -e "s/:/ /g"); do ls -l $i/perl; done in both shells. -- Life is complex, with real and imaginary parts -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
