I should probably wait to post this until I've calmed down a little, but I'm at my wits end and I know I won't be able to sleep if I don't post.

I have 2 servers: one is my live linux virtual web server and the 2nd started life as a cloned version of the first. Now, my 2nd serves as my development server which I then copy my perl files from to the first server. As far as I know, they have both been updated and modified to be the same as time goes on.

Everything has been peachy for the last 2 years until today when I copied the latest round of files from the 2nd server to the 1st. I have verified that both servers are running the same versions of PDF::API2 (2.019) and PDF::TextBlock (0.04). However, I get the following error on server #1: 

Internal exception error - Insecure dependency in sprintf while runnin
+g with -T switch

[download]

when I $tb->text($t);$tb->apply; anything where $t is large enough to wrap. Of course, the identical code files work fine on server #2. I have copied these files from server #2 to #1 multiple times now to make sure I didn't miss something, but it still works on #2, but not #1.

Does anyone have any ideas why this is happening?
