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

That can be done but isn't required , see perllocale for all the details.

Also, according to this, its a operating system problem, so you might check for updates for yours.

    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.
