The applescript is trivial:
#perl!
MacPerl::DoAppleScript(q{tell application "Finder" to
	move file "WebServer:WebStar:cgi-bin:myPerl.acgi" to trash});

__END__

You could also just unlink the file yourself in perl.  But I have no idea
how MacPerl handles a script unlinking itself during runtime?  I *assume*
it Does The Right Thing, but I don't know what that thing is.
