Hmmm, nobody has to answer. I'm ashamed. I found out what it was. On one
of the boxes I had renamed perl to perl.old, but hadn't made a link to  
the newer perl! On the other one I had made a link but misspelled       
/usr/local/lib/perl to /usr/loval/lib/perl                              
 
How come one has to send a question to questions@freebsd.org to be able
to answer it by oneself? ;-)
