Russell Coker suggested I run cruft on the system, and I did so.
It produced a long list of files several screen fulls long.
I found some interesting entries:
sat# grep usr.*perl /tmp/out
/usr/lib/perl5/CGI/Carp.pm
/usr/lib/perl5/CGI/Carp_dist.pm
These files don't seem to exist, I am not sure why cruft reported them.
More importantly:
/usr/lib/perl5/IO/Socket.pm
I strongly suspect this was the cause of my problems.
Anyway I backed up all of these files with:
sat# tar czvf /root/oldperl.tar.gz `grep usr.*perl /tmp/out`
and deleted the originals, and now it seems to work fine.
Thanks!
