Subject:   perl5: Can't find 'boot_<whatever>' symbol in /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.000502/i386-freebsd/auto/...

I just built perl5.00502 on a server running freebsd 2.2.8.  When I run it
on a client running 2.2.5 (bleah), perl chokes any time I try to use an
autoloading module, for instance:

echo "use Socket;" | /usr/local/bin/perl
Can't find 'boot_Socket' symbol in /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.00502/i386-freebsd/auto/Socket/Socket.so
 at - line 1
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at - line 1.

I even copied over a new libc.so.3.1 to the 2.2.5 client and ldconfig'ed just
for grins, no luck, so then I whipped over a 2.2.8 kernel and booted that too,
no luck.

Suggestions?  Has anyone seen this interaction when running a new perl on
old machines?
