perl and setgid scripts



I used to be able to do setgid (and indeed, setuid) scripts in perl;
but after upgrading to 5.002-7, they break, keeping the uid/gid of the
invoking process.  This has just spannered my mail system, which uses
a perl script to do the final delivery (and delivery agents must be
setgid mail under Debian).

What gives?
