Thanks for the suggestion, Serguei. CAM::PDF-107 is now installed along with perl 5.10 and the CAM:PDF functions that I am using work just fine now.
Oh, one thing about the Build. I thought that Build test was probably testing whether the install would be successful, so I ran it before Build install as you indicated. Not a pretty sight! Build test goes into an unending loop spewing garbage onto the screen. I had to kill it with the Task Manager. I wonder if MODULE::BUILD could/should be trained to catch that newbie blunder???
