Hm.  The more I look at this, the less sense I can make of it.  My only
thought is that your Events shared library is missing.  Can you get
Mac::Events to load in any case?

Regardless, event handling was significantly bettered in 5.2.0r4; consider
upgrading and trying again.  That would fix any problems that may exist
because of missing files, and give you better versions of the modules and
app to work with for event handling.

These would be in arch directories (shared libraries have no filename
extensions in MacPerl):

  :lib:Mac(?:PPC|CFM68K):auto:Mac:Windows:Windows
  :lib:Mac(?:PPC|CFM68K):auto:Mac:Events:Events
