in thread ctype locale: Invalid argument - what might cause this error?

P.S. Just a "hunch"; do I need to set a perl env in the script to make perl happy, maybe?

      Thank you for the reply "Anonymous Monk"

      I'll try the perllocale pointer you kindly provided.
      I've actually been using the FreeBSD family of BSD's. I enquired on their lists about this back in 2007 but nothing was offered. The machine I'm running this script on is running current (8-RELEASE) as of 7 days ago. So if it is *BSD's perl distrib, nothing' changed.

      Thank you again for taking the time to respond.
