$ locate Symbol.pm
/usr/lib/perl5/current/Symbol.pm
/usr/lib/perl5/current/i686-linux-thread-multi/Encode/Symbol.pm

$pacman -Qo /usr/lib/perl5/current/Symbol.pm
/usr/lib/perl5/current/Symbol.pm is owned by perl 5.8.8-5

Symbol.pm is a core perl module and should be installed.  Try:

# updatedb && locate Symbol.pm

This will tell you if Symbol.pm is installed.  If it isn't, I guess you could try reinstalling perl.

I had this problem, and doing

sudo pacman -S perl

reinstalling perl, did the trick

Can confirm this. But irssi didn't give me an error message. Just refused to start. Though, reinstalling perl did the trick.

Ive had the same problem with perl yesterday on a fresh install, and pacman -Syu did the trick there also.

This was certainly weird.

Got 3 boxes running arch duke which have
been running for some time, irssi quit
working on 2 of those comps at the same
time, no error message tho'.

And this happened without upgrading the system (pacman -Suy).

Odd? or not?
