Thanks John.  I think the fact that ARGV[0] is involved might be significant.  From my hazy recollection, argv[0] is normally the path to the app that got launched (in this case, the path to perl.exe).  There's nothing particularly unusual about that path:-

E:\Program Files\Perl\bin\perl.exe

although it does contain a space.  I wonder if that's the issue??

I'm ahead of you there!  I've already tried it from a command prompt but the result is the same....  :-(
