Using pdk (from this file PDK-Pro-6.9.92.275147-linux.tar.gz), I have an
executable that dies with a stack trace (see below). The executable was
built on Fedora Core 3 with ActivePerl 813.

The problem execution happened on an install of Fedore Core 4 with no
activeperl installed.

Any idea as of why this would happen?

I have to admit we were happily using PDK 5.3 until we need to use encoding
"UTF-8", which doesn't work with the older PDK for some reason.
