Sounds like it's time to re-factor and re-code it in a newer, shinier language named for a semiprecious jewel:
The new and improved Pea^Hrl, "Perl 5.10", now with CPANPLUS and IMPROVED Warnings !!! (standard), and PBP+Perl::Critic (optional accessories, some assembley required), PerlTidy (optional accessory).
Special offer this release only: futuristic Perl 6 preview items like
// , say, given/when case, and SmartMatch(~~)
[ backported by special arrangement with Back2teh.Future.com ]
