Well, I have a similar pb since I upgraded from 5.1.3r2 to 5.1.4r4. My
script, which used to work perfectly for months, gives me the following
error, and the script is not executed:

# BEGIN not safe after errors--compilation aborted.
File 'HD-GG:Developer:Perl extra lib:libwww-perl:LWP:UserAgent.pm'; Line
121
# BEGIN failed--compilation aborted.
File 'HD-GG:myPath:myScript.pl'; Line 19
# Scalars leaked: 6

I've just updated LWP from 5.9 to 5.13, but nothing changed.
Any suggestion?
