(Thanks, Paul.) The result looks perfectly rational -- however, this started happening only with the latest download of updated packages, so I'd have to guess at a connection of some sort, even if I'm asking after the wrong train of cause-and-effect. 'perl -V' shows this build was done on 27-March, so the timing's consistent with the appearance of the problem.

(Good thought, but no: Net::POP3 is what went wandering off; needed for a little program I have that POP's my ISP's server before exim relays outgoing mail to it.)
