I indeed got:
104: 8:52pm % perl -V|grep io
Summary of my perl5 (revision 5.0 version 8 subversion 1) configuration:
...
    useperlio=define d_sfio=undef uselargefiles=define usesocks=undef

I didn't make a script, I just pasted your post into a command line.
After the first try with no results I also tried it slurping a short
file. Besides simply printing it I tried both redirecting to a file and
opening an output file. The files created both ways were 0 length. I
have no idea why - but I'll try it again on a different machine later.

Thanks again!
