? My experience differs radically. Same error, MakeMaker 6.03, ncargs was
the standard install one as per the above. Were these with most of the
optional modules getting installed? Serge's program was what? I'm currently
seeing if an increased ncargs will work... yep, works. 65000 did the
trick. Sigh... means I'll have to go to each of our machines and tinker with
the kernel - at least it doesn't require a reboot.

	Thanks,
