Luke,

It's better than a bodge.  It seems to be a good idea.  It seems there 
was a big change in Text::Template at version 1.48.  Your attachment was 
version 1.47 -- i.e. before this significant change.

This confuses me.  I've read the relevant code and I don't understand 
why it's a problem.  Even more, I don't understand how it can be a 
problem only on the Mac and not everywhere.  Weird.

Anyway, I think replacing Text::Template as Luke suggests is a good idea 
for anyone seeing this problem on the Mac.
