POPFile on OS 9, Anyone?

Cody Pendant has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I would dearly like to get POPFile working on some Mac OS9 machines. MacPerl is installed and working just fine as far as I can tell, but the popfile.pl dies when launched, at line 331 which is:

$components{core}{config}->load_configuration();
[download]

with the following error:

# Can't call method "initialize" on unblessed reference.
[download]

I must admit I'm a bit baffled following the trail of modules that it's loading at that point -- can someone give me a push in the right direction and tell me what's failing in what module?

I guess it's attempting to start its own mail proxy at that point?

TIA

I realised it might help to run it again with warnings on and got this: POPFile Engine v0.19.1 loading # No such signal: SIGQUIT. File 'HD::popfile-0.19.1 Folder:popfile.pl'; Line 243 # No such signal: SIGABRT. File 'HD::popfile-0.19.1 Folder:popfile.pl'; Line 244 # No such signal: SIGKILL.
