I'm sure you're doing it right.

I've never tried it on OS X, but I had exactly the same problem when
Perl 5.6 first came out. I didn't investigate further since the Perl
development team were rather unhelpful about it. And about quite a
lot of other things. With hindsight that might be understandable,
they must have been taking a lot of flack about that time.
The problem persisted until I upgraded to 5.7.2.
Any way you can try it on a different OS, or even try a different Perl?
And before Stas jumps on me *again* for saying that I have no evidence
that 5.8.0 is the culprit in this case. It just smells fishy to me. :)
