No, it was different: A colleague here found the solution :
actually in the archives of *your* mailing list :

	 http://www.engelschall.com/sw/wml/news/list/msg02290.shtml

As soon as we deactivated the LC_ALL environment variable
everything worked :


  lynne{sfs}202> printenv | grep LC
  LC_ALL=de_CH

  lynne{sfs}203> unsetenv LC_ALL

  lynne{sfs}204> wmk

  (and all was fine)

Thanks for fixing this, or working around the perl problem if it's perl's
fault..
