slimserver.pl certainly does attempt to set up @INC to contain the 5.8.x paths followed by 5.8. Is it perhaps worth adding an option to display some debug information about the startup process. For example: The inherited @INC; the modified @INC; the contents of @modules; the contents of %INC after the first attempt to load modules; which modules failed at that stage; and the contents of %INC after the second attemt using the original @INC. I also note that GD isn't in @modules. Should it be?
