    regarding diff's and Data::Dumper, there is a option in there to sort the keys of the hash dump's. It works for me...

      I'm familiar with ordering the has keys. The problem stems from this note in the CHANGES file for Data::Dumper:

      =item 2.11  (unreleased)

      C<0> is now dumped as such, not as C<'0'>.

      That's the problem that's killing me, but there's probably a simple setting that I overlooked :)

      As a side note, the segfault was being caused by my having a PERL5LIB environment variable silently pointing to my personal CPAN directory. That directory has a version of Storable compiled for 5.6.1 which, as we know, is not binary compatible with 5.8.1.
