Yes, it does. Do you have a old version of File::Tail perhaps?

Taken from http://search.cpan.org/~mgrabnar/File-Tail-0.99.3/Tail.pm

If the file does not get altered for a while, File::Tail gets suspicious 
and startschecking if the file was truncated, or moved and recreated. If 
anything like that had happened, File::Tail will quietly reopen the 
file, and continue reading. The only way to affect what happens on 
reopen is by setting the reset_tail parameter (see below). The effect of 
this is that the scripts need not be aware when the logfiles were 
rotated, they will just quietly work on.
