I wanted to build an awesome place for people to discuss module specific issues, but I don't have any more time for this, and there are much better places to discuss Perl-related issues. I'd recommend asking your question on Stack Overflow or on Perl Monks.
If you are looking for a Perl tutorial or Perl-related news, I hope these links will serve you well.

Re: Problem Setting FileModifyDate
Hi Justin,

This narrows it down a bit, thanks. I try repeating these steps with my system tonight. My only guess is that somehow the date/time routines are seeing this as an invalid date after you change it, and so aren't setting the date/time properly. I'll check this. Keep in mind that the FileModifyDate isn't stored in the file, but is part of the filesystem. So the file itself is not changed when you set FileModifyDate.
