local $/ = '^\'; I suspect that ^\ is meant to be control-backslash -- ie. ascii 28, otherwise known as FS for "file separator". If so you are not setting the INPUT_RECORD_SEPARATOR $/ to chr(28), but rather to the two character string consisting of a caret (^) and a backslash (\). To set $/ to FS, you can use any of the following constructs:
(I'd advise one of the first two for clarity.) If my suspicions are correct, then once you've set the input record separator correctly, you may find that the rest of your code functions as expected. It is possible to enter ascii 28 by typing ', control+backslash, ' (at least on windows and my keyboard), but it is at best an obscure and easily misunderstood way of doing so.)

In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.
