I'm cc-ing marc who seems to be the closest thing the perl locker has
to a contact point. However, you almost certainly want to solve this
problem by using /usr/athena/bin/perl instead.
I'm going to go ahead an close your bug report now.

Hi. The timestamp on the perl binary in the "perl" locker is five years
old, and won't run, at least on linux22.
