That's what I'm thinking, too... :(

Is File::Find part of the base Perl 5.X installation?  The perl I am
using is part of a larger package (HP OpenView Network Node Manager) on a
customers machine that I support -- HP has some dire warnings when it
comes to upgrading the Perl they install with NNM, and the customers IT
group has loaded their own copy of Perl 5.X in another directory for their
own use. Gotta love administration of machines like this... :)
