vcp problems

I'm experiencing, as do others, problems using vcp.

While actually trying to get it to work with svk, it also doesn't work
with p4 anymore. I have currently tried both debian package and autijus
patched cpan package.

When using it with p4 I get these errors:

ares ~# vcp acx100_to_acx100.vcp 
vcp v0.9, change number 4232 (2004/03/18)

    Thanks for the help,
