it might be the environment is gone in the script.
what happens if you chdir to the executing dir:
# in your bat/cmd file:
c:
cd c:\joe\perlscripts
start c:\perl\bin\perl.exe c:\joe\perlscripts\post-commit.pl %1 %2
also you might want to use this form of executing instead of backsticks.
this might be a help when encountering funny characters in filenames
local *SVNLOOK;
open(SVNLOOK, '-|:utf8', $cmd) || die("$!, cmd: $cmd");
my @svnlook_output = <SVNLOOK>;
close SVNLOOK;
