useopenid has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

What is a "bootstrap parameter"? When I google it, all I see are either specific module conflicts from the all too common "does not match bootstrap parameter" error or a vague "installed version of perl" reference. Perl's got an almost overly specific method of handling versioning - why isn't it finding the right module for the version of perl that's being used? Thanks!
