RH8 just upgraded Perl  and now my MailScanner (4.23-11) fails at
startup.  Error message below.

Here is the list of updated RPMs from RH.  Anyone know what happened and
how I can fix it?

perl-5.8.0-88.3
perl-CGI-2.81-88.3
perl-CPAN-1.61-88.3
perl-DB_FILE-1.804-88.3
perl-suidperl-5.8.0-88.3

After the updates I restarted MailScanner and got this.  I reloaded the
MailScanner RPMs and attempted
a reinstall, but that failed too.

MailScanner failed. The error was: Shutting down MailScanner daemons:
          MailScanner:       [  OK  ]
          incoming sendmail: [  OK  ]
          outgoing sendmail: [  OK  ]
