in reply to The -add does nothing different...
in thread ActiveState's PerlApp is causing an odd problem with IO:Socket

From Socket.pm:

    my $sel = new IO::Select $sock;

This code works fine when I use socket functions in runtime perl, and it works fine with PerlApp compiled code that is "dependent" on Perl being on the system. It's the freestanding version only that doesn't work.

The modules are getting added to the .exe when it's compiled, and they're explicitly use'd in the program.

I'm going to go dig up a newer version of PerlApp if I have it here and see what happens.
