It is only happening on one of a dozen identical systems.
I'm not a windows user, but I do know from experience that there can be subtle differences in the configuration settings for various apps (e.g. attributes for command-line shell windows) that people tend to ignore or forget about when they compare two windows machines and call them "identical".
Maybe this is just a red herring, but if one machine out of several behaves different, it seems inaccurate to call it "identical" to the rest, and it might be worthwhile looking for the thing that makes it "not identical" (OS-patches/config/app-parameter-settings/etc...), rather than looking at just the perl code that triggers the deviant behavior.

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).
