Looks like that problem still isn't fixed, as shown by the following
error message:

You may have a different PATH than I do, or different capitalization on
the binary files. The upshot is that when you run the 'head' command,
it *must* run the /usr/bin/head program I sent you and not LWP's 'HEAD'
script. Here's a transcript from my shell, what does yours say?
[localhost:~] ken% which head
/usr/bin/head
[localhost:~] ken% which HEAD
/usr/local/bin/HEAD
