I took a look at what he changed, then did my own tinkering.
I have a feeling this was all that was needed:

my ($huskyBinDir);

All of the options were also added to that line, and none of them work unless they're removed from it. I don't know if that's the actual fix since, to be perfectly honest, I have no idea what I'm doing. But.. more options started working as I removed them. Process of elimination and all that. ;)

Regards,
Nick
