OK, I still don't understand anything, but I know how to fix it.

You can add the following variable definition line 1824 in Template.pm
(in HTML::Template 2.08) :

      my $a_stupid_variable_for_a_stupid_bug=$1;
      $which = uc($1); # which tag is it

It seems that uc will fails otherwise. But why ????

Or you can add some quotes like that :

      $which = uc("$1"); # which tag is it

or add a print :

      print $1;
      $which = uc($1); # which tag is it

or whatever...

If someone can explain me what's going on here...
