in thread PAUSE problem

Don't understand the last line though; what did you have in mind?

Nothing important, just hoops. Instead of 

my $mod = __PACKAGE__;
$mod =~ s{::}{/}g;
$mod .= '.pm';
$mod = $INC{$mod};
$mod =~ s/EPD\.pm//i;

my $module_dir_qfn = realpath($mod);
my $db_dir_qfn     = catdir($module_dir_qfn, 'db');

You might have used 
realpath( catfile( __FILE__, updir(), 'db' ) );

    It took a bit of head bashing, but this: 
    my $db_dir_qfn = realpath( catfile( __PACKAGE__, updir(), 'db' ) );

    seems to do the trick nicely. Love getting rid of lines of code for one--- particularly when the lines gone look more like the much maligned perl line noise! Thanks for the suggestion.
