Having followed these tweaks, and having downgraded a couple of modules
to earlier versions, I now have working droplets. tarzipme does still
spit these warnings though:

# Ambiguous use of {list} resolved to {"list"}.
File 'HardDisk:Scripting:MacPerl °:lib:Mac:Lists.pm'; Line 253

Doing a simple find and replace in Lists.pm to change {list} to {"list"}
gets rid of the errors. Otherwise working perfectly now though.
