Nailed it down to a failing base function 'getprotobyname':
% perl5.00503 -e 'print getprotobyname ("udp"), "\n"'; echo $?
udpUDP17
0
% ./perl -e 'print getprotobyname ("udp"), "\n"' ; echo $?
6
%
Same for 'getprotobynumber':
% perl5.00503 -e 'print getprotobynumber (17), "\n"' ; echo $?
udpUDP17
0
% ./perl -e 'print getprotobynumber (17), "\n"' ; echo $?
6
%
