Hmm, this is very odd..

Looks like a perl5.6 problem (Bug?). Perl5.8 works fine.. hmm..

I don't know why this fails on perl5.6.. I'll have to look at the perldelta 
documents..
Or maybe google knows it ;)

As a quick fix: Changing
 use constant MACTIME => 2082931200;
into
 use constant MACTIME => 2082931200.0;

seems to make perl5.6 happy..
