"pca -da missingrs" works fine for me. Are you sure you're using "-da"?
Look at the control characters I'm quoting from your message.

It should work. pca uses the Getopt::Long perl module for command line
parsing, and it's been doing so for a long time. If it's not a (user
:)-error on the command line, it could be a very old or broken
installation of perl. But if it has worked before on that system, that
would be strange.
Martin.
