Try this (assuming *nix as OS):

$ mv /usr/bin/perl /usr/bin/perl.real $ cat > /usr/bin/perl #!/bin/sh PROG=$1 /usr/bin/perl.real -MO=Deparse $PROG ^D $ chmod 755 /usr/bin/perl

$ is prompt. Ctrl+D to finish entering your perl substitute shell script.

Try running your exe and it should/may (untested) spew source.

$ some.exe > source.txt 2>&1
Reverse changes with:
$ rm -f /usr/bin/perl $ mv /usr/bin/perl.real /usr/bin/perl

All care, no responsibility.
