I understand that there can be a mixing of the versions. But, this is slightly unconvincing because, my perl script already populates @INC variable in the start of the script. Thus, the execution has to go with 5.6.1 now. The prolem here is when i do the same in a small test script and execute it with 5.6.1 it works. but not in the actual perl script. How can that be???

Also, there are other perl scripts, containing shell commands and getting executed with perl 5.6.1. SO, i wouldn't say that the installation of 5.6.1 is flawed.

Can there be any other reason???
