Right.

I looked at the perlmod doc (see my reply elsewhere) and returned to the "It's a computer, computers are stupid literal, what's different from the template vs. my code..." concept. The one thing that I could see is the use of

package Some::Module;
[download]

and the statement that the Module.pm file was in the Some directory. In my case, the modules are in the 'pm' directory. So I added pm:: constructs in my "package" declarations:

package pm::Foo;
package pm::Bar;
package pm::Baz;

In some cases, it required comparable

use strict;
use warnings;
use pm::Bar;
use pm::Baz;
[download]

declarations in the modules using the other modules, sometimes not. Still not sure (ie, still haven't really looked at why that might be). But now I get

ServerDude-2:/www/cgi/jenny rip$ !./
./Generate types
Content-type:text/xml

<value>
  <in>%d</in>
  <out>
    <types>
      <type>
        <string>pkey</string>
        <format>%{8}c</format>
      </type>...
    </types>
  </out>
</value>
ServerDude-2:/www/cgi/jenny rip$
[download]

All is right with the world again.

Thanks for all your time!
