I think I already know the answer to my question but since I am definitely not an expert I thought I would ask here.

In a small test program I entered the following:

use re 'debug';

Before entering this code the program ran correctly.

When I syntax-checked the program these messages came back: 

Can't load '/usr/perl5/5.6.1/lib/sun4-solaris-64int/auto/re/re.so' for
+ module re: ld.so.1: perl: fatal: relocation error: file /usr/perl5/5

Reading the message I have guessed that this version of Perl was badly installed. But it is only a guess and I am hoping that someone can tell me if I am right or wrong.

I have already sent this to the sysadmin responsibile. I am hoping he can make it all better.
