Since you are using strict and warnings, I am unsure. For me I would change your code from:

foreach my $argnum (0 .. $#ARGV){
my $inputfile = $ARGV[$argnum];

to

while ( defined $ARGV[0] ) {
my $inputfile = $ARGV[0];
shift(@ARGV);

are the files you are processing from the same environment or a different one? If different, then it might be invalid translation of end of line? Otherwise it sounds like you are doing the processing, so you are reading the files and if this is true, then sounds like not what your perl is expecting for end of line.

Wags ;)
