Description:
From the distribution README:
Perl is a language that combines some of the features of C, sed, awk
and shell. See the manual page for more hype. There are also two Nutshell
Handbooks published by O'Reilly & Assoc. See pod/perlbook.pod
for more information.

>Fix:
unknown, but possibly one of:
- require perl-5.6.1 and upgrade perl? (I'd rather not just now ;-)
- fix mkpatches?
