I run into this problem this week at work. I installed Perl v5.8.6 (yes, I am 
upgrade happy :) over 5.8.5 (and originally 5.8.3).

v5.8.x is cool because you can still use all the old installed modules. 
However, newly installed modules go into the 5.8.6 path. So you get two 
versions. Normally no problem, but on this system /usr/bin/perl was still 
pointing at Perl v5.8.3 and since most scripts have

        #!/usr/bin/perl -w

as first line, invoking them via:

        ./script --options

will use the old Perl - which of course does not know about updated modules in 
the 5.8.6 path. Took me quite some time to figure out why certain bugs still 
appeared  - I know added a debug status panel which shows the versions of the 
loaded modules and Perl just for this reason :)

Best wishes,

Tels
