You say that the .pl and the .exe don't perform the same, and at the end of your node you say it runs as .pl but not as an .exe. Maybe you should tell more about the differences, so we can try to analyze better what is going on.
As far as I see it now, there's no reason why it should run differently. Someone compiled pVoice for me with IndigoStar's Perl2Exe and it runs exactly like the .pl version, so it should be possible so make a normal running .exe file.
