Jason,
I have the same problems with upgrading perl in our operational environment. I
therefore installed a new version of perl in /opt (we do everything there)
especially for Radiator. Then edit radiusd and radpwtst to use this new perl
binary and everything should work, provided you also pay attention to the
PERL5LIB environment var to include only 'new per ready' paths.
