Even easier solution
Authored by: Greg on Jan 20, '04 10:07:25AM

This problem arose on my machine because the PERL5LIB variable
was pointing to a fink source that was no longer needed. So the
fix is to remove this directive completely as follows:

sudo pico /sw/bin/init.csh

then comment out the following lines by placing a # at the beginning

if ( $?PERL5LIB ) then
prepend_path PERL5LIB /sw/lib/perl5:/sw/lib/perl5/darwin
else
setenv PERL5LIB /sw/lib/perl5:/sw/lib/perl5/darwin
endif

Now perl works as expected when you log back into the terminal. Thanks to the previous posters for pointing out the problem.
