Hi there,
I've recently been working on the Net_Whois package over at PHP PEAR so I am
able to offer advise in this area should you require assistance.
I don't think it would take much work to fix this.
On another (much larger) note, I did actually manage to get the module
installed, however upon using it, I discovered that "ok" returned false in
all cases.
This all falls under the heading of "it's outdated", so I won't open another
bug report.
I can only encourage you to update this module for the sake of Perl.
Ta.
