Okay, lets get the details out of the way first

This is perl, v5.8.0 built for i386-linux-thread-multi All of the modules used:

CGI qw(:standard ); 
CGI::Carp;
CGI::Widget::Tabs;
Carp;
DBI;
Data::Dumper;
Dumpvalue;
Exporter;
File::Basename;
FileHandle;
HTML::Entities;
HTML::Parser;
HTTP::Date qw(parse_date);
URI::Escape();
base qw(Exporter);
vars qw($VERSION @ISA);
vars qw/$VERSION/;

They aren't all in the same package.

The problem.

When I profile, I get a tmon.out file that causes dprofpp to spew garbage no matter what switches are used w/dprofpp.

Using a different program, but one that uses the same module developed by me, I get DB sub errors when trying to run w/ -d:DProf.

Here are those errors:

[Thu Sep 25 11:13:54 2003] DB.pm: Subroutine sub redefined at /usr/lib
+/perl5/5.8.0/DB.pm line 62.

It should be noted of course, that both scripts work perfectly fine outside of the DProf environment. The first one runs fine both under CGI and command line, the second one is a command line only script.

If anyone knows of conflicts with DProf and any of the modules I've listed, please let me know. I figured I'd try and ask before I went on the peal the onion crusade to identify the culprit.

Thanks in advance,
