From doing research on the Internet, people have said that I would need to recompile the modules using the new build of Perl

That should fix the problem - but it shouldn't be necessary if the 2 perls in question match.
I would've expected that if both perls report the same version number, and the same archname then you shouldn't be experiencing this problem ... but maybe there's some other consideration.
For the 2 perls what is the output of 
perl -le 'print $];'

[download]
and 
perl -V:archname

[download]
If the outputs for the 2 perls are identical, then it's probably best to give us (in readmore tags) the entire perl -V output for both perls.
Someone might then be able to spot the snag.

Cheers,
Rob
