Comment(by ryandesign@…):

 There has to be something unusual about your system. Perl and Mac OS X
 have been around for a long time; if this were a general problem it would
 have been found long ago.

 The default computer name on new Mac OS X systems contains spaces and
 apostrophes, as in "Steve's MacBook Pro". The system converts this to a
 hostname as "Steves-MacBook-Pro.local" -- it removes punctuation and
 converts spaces to dashes, making a legal hostname. I don't know how you
 eded up with a hostname containing a space and an apostrophe. System
 Preferences: Sharing: Edit doesn't even let you type those characters into
 the hostname text field. If you upgraded from a prior OS or migrated from
 a prior computer, perhaps some cruft was leftover somewhere. The ".home"
 TLD you had is also unusual; the Bonjour TLD Macs use is ".local".

 In any case, I'm glad you were able to resolve the issue.
