Hi Mike,
Yeah, sorry, it sounds really strange to me too. I have to say I am not
responsible for the installation of Perl or any modules on our Sun server
so that it's possible that something has got messed up there, but I can't
really make any progress in that regard unless I can say that someone on
another platform doesn't have the problem. On the other hand, for another
client, also on Solaris, with a different ILS, I had some random problems
that looked quite similar. Files were not so large for the other client, so
maybe that's why they only seemed to crop up rarely.
I am writing now from my office, not my client's site, so I'll have to send
you the files tomorrow. But just to give you a better sense of what I'm
looking at, here's the attached document, which a Perl-knowledgeable
colleague has already checked over for obvious errors.
Thanks very much.
Ron

I'd be very interested in seeing th smallest possible test that dies
reliably.
