Hi Michael,
Eureka!
I don't know how this happened but I have 2 versions of perl.
Apparently. OS X comes wtih 5.8.6 and installs it in /usr/bin. I also
have 5.8.8 which is in /usr/local/bin.
I obviously have a very confused installation and at this point I
guess I need to know which should I use and how do I straighten this
mess out?

Hi Michael,
Thanks again for the reply. I already had the latest MIME::Base64
but while I was verifying that I made a startling discovery. I now
know what the problem is but not how to fix it. I have perl 5.8.8.
All my updates via CPAN go into /usr/local/lib/perl5, which I
believe is normal. However, when I run perl, it never looks there.
Apparently, the path for that is not in Perl's library list. How do
I add that and why do I have to? This only happened after I
installed (or rather tried) Net::SFTP.

Thanks for the reply. I already have MIME::Base64. However, I
decided to try to upgrade all the modules to see if that would
help. What a mess. I have many modules that fail for a host of
reason, mostly test failures.
So did I. But I went and did the usual incantation on MIME::Base64 by
hand to force an up-to-date install and that seemed to clear up the
problem. I didn't dig for a reason, but the initial error message
pointed to something being awry in MIME::Base64.
yours,
Michael
