I was hoping for something really obvious missing from the steps I had done
so I didn't include the error message.

The message we get if we try and execute from either the cgi-bin directory
or the place we want it is: (ignore the pseudo-HTML tags - they identify
size but aren't part of the error)

<Big & Bold>Server Error</Big & Bold>

This server has encountered an internal error which prevents it from
fulfilling your request.  The most likely cause is a misconfiguration.
Please ask the administrator to look for messages in the servers error log.

I REALLY doubt this has anything to do with Perl specificly -- "Server" to
me implies the error is a Unix error.  OTOH, there are other CGI scripts on
the machine which run just fine and we've made the #! line the same.

My boss is trying to contact the SysAdmin for this particular box to find
out what might be going on.
