Not really. Perl doesn't know anything about date.
delete $ENV{path};
die `date`;
date is an external program, and as such, depends on the ENVironment. It is a very bad idea to do things like `date`. This ain't shell programming, this is perl, and perl has gmtime() and localtime() which in scalar context return a neato time string, as in
perl -le die~~gmtime
perl -le die~~localtime
Now that's called portability.

I run a Win32 PPM
repository for perl 5.6x+5.8x. I take requests.
