Have to drop in a correction !
neuron:~> which -a perl
/usr/bin/perl
/usr/local/bin/perl

/sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11/bin:/usr/local/khoros220
0/bin:/usr/local/pvm3/lib:/usr/local/pvm3/bin/FREEBSD2

(/usr/local/bin/perl is perl-5.x)
Due to my PATH /usr/bin/perl is found first.


Make the first line in your cgi:
  #!/usr/local/bin/perl
where /usr/local/bin/perl is your perl-5.x interpreter
