OK, the "working" machine outputs nothing, but the "non-working" says:

$ perl -e "use Scalar::Util 'weaken'"
Weak references are not implemented in the version of perl at -e line 1
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at -e line 1.

The "bad" machine has this includes that aren't in the "good" machine:

          'Config.pm' => '/usr/lib/perl/5.8/Config.pm',
          'Exporter/Heavy.pm' => '/usr/share/perl/5.8/Exporter/Heavy.pm',
          'AutoLoader.pm' => '/usr/share/perl/5.8/AutoLoader.pm',
          'DynaLoader.pm' => '/usr/lib/perl/5.8/DynaLoader.pm',

Can you please give me any more help in this issue?

Since this isn't an apt-show-versions bug, but probably a perl-base one, I'm 
trying to reassign it to the perl-base package. Please act otherwise, if you 
think this is not the propper way to deal with this problem.
