Perl question

[Posted here, beause I can't find a live perl group; if you know of one,
please refer me there.]

I had a strange problem pop up today. I am working on a msall program,
and my program file starts with something like this:
     #! /usr/bin/perl
     #
         use strict;
     my $aaa;
     my @bbb = ( # "1ab",
                   "2bc",
                   "3cd"
               ):

Program runs fine, when I pun it using "perl program".
But when I "chmod +x program" and run it as "./program"
it has syntax errors on "use strict;" and on the commented
out first line of @bbb.

I am puzzled. Why would that be? For my use today, it does not
matter, but I have not seen this before, and I keep the "use strict;"
line in all my production code. Any hints for how to figure out what's
wrong?
