 -T and -B are not implemented on the "perl" that comes with Freebsd 3.1
 
 % uname -a
 FreeBSD 3.1-RELEASE
 % perl -v
 This is perl, version 5.005_02 built for i386-freebsd
 
 Can you please tell me why this is the case?
 Where these features excised for a reason?
 In the solution still to go find and apply patches?
 What about a simple "ports" recompile?
 
 Steve
