I have been starting to reimplement Mail::DomainKeys with the Cryp::RSA

I'd suggest trying a 32bit version of perl, as what you describe above
should not be happening.
My platform being sparc64, that's easier said than done.

I don't think it's perl misbehaving, I have reason to believe (from the
little ktrace knowledge I have) that it's a problem in the openssl C
libraries.
Ah ok. Well something has built wrong at least. It was of course either
perl itself or one of the included libraries.
Can't see 64bit really being a viable alternative for sometime. There's
a wealth of 32bit software which just isn't being maintained anymore, but
works perfectly under 32bit. Perhaps if Dan Bernstein ever got a 64bit
CPU, he could fix his software, tho I won't hold my breath.
Cheers.
