I just wanted to note that I haven't compared versions etc and the more 
likely scenario is that the scalar utils module did not get rebuilt or 
rebuilt correctly.

Forcing a reinstall via cpan has fixed this problem, despite stating the 
module was already up-to-date.

Maybe there is a lacking dependency check?

My apologies to current-users .... in my haste to send an email and 
recieve a response, I included you for the wealth of knowledge I've come 
to love you for :) ... this is indeed a pkgsrc problem, sorry for the noise.
