An interesting speculation. The first line of bin/interchange is indeed
#!usr/bin/perl which is a symlink that points to perl5.6.1. Substituting
in the 5.6.1 makes no difference. In /usr/bin there is only one perl
executable and a couple of other symlinks that point to it.

My standalone globalsub didn't have such a first line but putting it in
made no difference. However I did notice something as I checked these
things out.

I run my standalone version like this: "perl tcptest.pl".
Could the fact that I'm invoking perl directly to run my script make the
difference? Maybe it's got something to do with the way my shell is set
up to handle perl executables?
