PerlApp and xcopy on WinXP SP2

PerlTray exit and Tk problem | RE: PerlApp and xcopy on WinXP SP2
I am using PerlApp 6.0.0 build 117102 on Windows XP SP2.  I am having
trouble using the windows xcopy.exe via system or backticks.  A call
such as:
system "xcopy c:\somedir\*.* c:\otherdir /s /e /i /y";
fails silently with no warnings or errors.  Using backticks, gives the
same result:
$retval = `xcopy c:\somedir\*.* c:\otherdir /s /e /i /y`;
If I run the code in komodo or as perl script.pl, it works just fine. 
The problem only shows in the program when compiled using PerlApp.  Is
this a problem with PerlApp, Windows XP, or me?  Any info would be
greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Chris
