How are you starting your script? Can you put: print "$^O: $]\n"
or something at the beginning and verify for sure which perl you are using?
If you are accidentally running cygwin's perl and it's loading activestate
modules, uninstalling the perl packages should help.
If you are running activestate's perl and it is finding some cygwin perl
modules, that would cause a problem also. Adding something like:
BEGIN { unshift @INC, sub {
print join ":", "loading", @_, caller, "\n";
return;
}; }
at the beginning of your script, that may help isolate the problem.
