Since it wasn't your code, it had to be mine :-). Change 32329 should take care of it: http://public.activestate.com/cgi-bin/perlbrowse/p/32329 Basically, somewhere along the line, something was calling C<glob('blib');> but we weren't finding any matches. In that case we write the input pattern plus a newline to the filehandle that manages the glob output. Instead of copying the input string and adding a newline to it, I was adding the newline to the original scalar. Doh! Then something else would come along and use that scalar to look up the class object 'blib' but it would really be looking for "blib\n" because I'd modified the string part of the scalar. -- ________________________________________ Craig A.
