Newer Perl versions have a necessary core patch that'll eliminate
this problem. So, I'd absolutely recommend upgrading Perl.. and
your JDK too if you can. Afterwards look at the install Sreedhar 
just sent if there're any problems.   

If you're stuck with an antiquated Perl, here's Jarkko's old core 
patch that may work.  I don't recall if the patch targetted Perl 
version 5.5.3 however. Some things are so old they just need to
rest in peace...

Would this work for you?  (Untested since I do not do JPL...)

Change 8803 by jhi@alpha on 2001/02/14 03:14:14

	Duplicate environment for JPL so that JDK 1.2/1.3 don't get upset.
