Greetings all,
In the end, I ended up simply using a "system" call within Perl:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use POSIX qw(strftime);
$|++;
my $gmtstring = strftime "%F %H:%I:%S", localtime;
my $filename = "symlinked-iso-file-with-limited-lifetime";
my $arg1 = ('-XP . -type l -cmin');
my $arg2 = ('+15');
my $arg3 = ('xargs rm');
system("/usr/bin/find $arg1 $arg2 | $arg3");
It's just going to have to do, until I become more proficient in Perl.
Thank you all again, for all your time, consideration, and patience. :)

#!/usr/bin/perl -Tw
use perl::always;
my $perl_version = "5.12.4";
print $perl_version;

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
