Thanks Walt, this is it.

I just put /usr/local/bin in front of my path and it works, but I 
suppose its not the way to do it ;)

I was vaguely remembering this use.perl port, but it doesn't come up 
when you do a 'apropos perl'. There should be a manpage for it, which 
I'm ready to write if if its not too time consuming.
