Wow. That was easy.

Something went terribly wrong with Date::Calc on a server I don't  
have root on.

So I installed Date::Calc in my personal lib directory...

$ perl -MCPAN -e install

cpan> o conf makepl_arg "LIB=~/lib INSTALLMAN1DIR=~/man/man1  
INSTALLMAN3DIR=~/man/man3"

cpan> o conf commit

cpan> install Date::Calc

$ export PERL5LIB=/home/jhannah/lib

poof! My own personal Date::Calc works great. I'm surprised I've  
never been forced to do that before, and am equally surprised at how  
easy it was. :)
