I "use.perl system"'d back to 5.005 and everything worked again. I also --after I got 5.005 working again, installed the latest FormMail (v 1.9) and things continued to work. The only variable that I'm aware of is that I installed the Webmin 0.92 "jabber" module and had to swim through some really cryptic perl errors in order to get the module to work --Webmin, the day after, released a Jabber module that worked without producing those errors, so it is possible that I hosed my Perl while trying to "fix" the errant Jabber WebMin module. I haven't, yet, reinstalled Perl 5.6.1 --I figured it was best to ask the question here before I break my server, yet again.
