Subject: Weak references are not implemented
I made the mistake of upgrading my distro's (SuSE 10.0) Perl to the latest they provide (5.8.7 with a SPRINTF patch). Now SVK is busted because PerlIO-via-dynamic barfs: Use of uninitialized value in pattern match (m//) at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.7/Class/Autouse.pm line 489. Weak references are not implemented in the version of perl at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.7/PerlIO/via/dynamic.pm line 61 BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.7/PerlIO/via/dynamic.pm line 61. Compilation failed in require at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.7/SVK/XD.pm line 18. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.7/SVK/XD.pm line 18.

Installing newer List::Util should fix that problem. Cheers, CLK

Yeah, that and it turns out PathTools (specifically Cwd) was broken too. I was initially confused because the error seemed to be coming from your modules. Sorry for the false alarm...
