Thanks to everyone that replied with suggestions. Eventually I managed to
get it working by altering !Perl.!Boot as follows:

  Set Alias$@RunType_102 WimpSlot 1024K|m do /<Perl$Dir>.Perl %%*0
  Set Alias$Perl WimpSlot 1024K|m do /<Perl$Dir>.Perl %%*0

seems the placing of 'do' is rather critical (been too long since I was
messing about on the RPC :-((( )

  Cheers,
    Glyn.
