Bingo! Your shell interprets "address@hidden", and expands it to
"@stat = lstat($ARGV[0]);". This shouldn't happen, because the perl
program in the shell function is enclosed in single quotes. Hmm.

I have no access to IRIX64 systems. Could you find out, how the shell
function must be written in order to pass the perl program literally?

Best regards, Michael.
