in reply to why does par packer cause incorrect Perl-Tk server() output?

The point that puzzles me is that the PerlTK server() call does provide the correct output when run directly, but not when packed inside a Par::Packer exe, so it's not a matter of depreciated APIs or ancient warnings from a 16 year old book.

It appears like a Par::Packer bug to me, but I don't have enough knowledge or skill to pinpoint the root cause.

    You don't have to. All you need is enough knowledge or skill to raise a bug report. The maintainer will then investigate for you.
