You can't start up perl (/usr/athena/bin/perl) in "interactive" mode.
(That is, you can't run commands of the form "perl -de <Perl expression>")
For example,
~% perl -de 'print "foo"'
Can't locate perldb.pl in @INC.
This bug is present only in the Athena version of perl; the one in the perl
locker works fine (/mit/perl/sun4bin/perl).
~% /mit/perl/sun4bin/perl -de 'print "foo"'
Loading DB routines from $RCSfile: perldb.pl,v $$Revision: 4.0.1.3 $$Date: 92/06/08 13:43:57 $
Emacs support available.
Enter h for help.
