Subject: Wierd perl problem..

	I'm having a really strange perl problem under cygwin 1.0

	One perl script produces the following output:

   0	0 [main] d:\Cygwin\contrib\bin\perl.exe 1114 fork_copy: loaded dll data/bss pass 0 failed, 0x14043000..0x1404300C, done 0, Win32 error 487

	and then hangs that shell window half the time.

	This happens when the perl script is executing the following line
	of code:

chop($LOCALHOST = `hostname`);

	hostname is in the path, and works fine.  

	This only seems to happen if the script has a
use FileHandle;
	line after the initialization stuff I describe above,
	another script with the exact same initialization section
	as the one described above works fine.  

	Is there something I need to do to get the FileHandle
	stuff working under cygwin, or am I just out of luck?
