[Catalyst] Missing weak references in my version of Perl

[Karl.Moens at marsh.com]

Dear Listmembers,

Yesterday I tried to update Catalyst to its latest version. CPAN however
lists lots of errors, mainly of the "Your Perl does not support weak
references"-form. I am using Activestate Perl 5.8.7 build 813 on Windows
XP.

Thinking my Scalar::List::Utils module was in need of an update (which is
the source of the weak-references) I installed the latest version 1.18
through ppm, but to no avail. I must have broken something when doing one
or other upgrade but I cannot trace what.

Now I remember that some time ago there was a discussion on this list
regarding a similar problem. Does anyone remember when this was or could
anyone point me to the right thread, so I can look it up in the
list-archives?

Thanks!

Karl
