Joakim,

Are they libraries created by Lincoln Stein at MIT?  If so, I had the same
problem and it so happened that I was using MacPerl 5 at the time and the
libraries were meant for Perl 4.  When I saved the CGI as a MacPerl 4 CGI
using the library everything worked as it should have.  Hope that helped.
