theorbtwo may well be correct. I will merely add my own observtion that back in the 5.6.0/5.6.1 days we had this happen and we simply re-built Perl using the libraries on the machine and all the problems were fixed.

    Thanks guys, yes if I remove the LANG variable (or set it to nothing) the problem has gone :)
    Won't need to compile Perl then, although that is oddly enough quite a lot of fun.

    Its probably to do with a change i've made when setting up user accounts. I'd best check out /etc/skel and profile etc.
