Summary:                    Update to Perl 5.12.1
Description: 
Ref: http://search.cpan.org/~jesse/perl-5.12.1/

Please update to Perl 5.12.1 on Solaris.
* Perl now conforms much more closely to the Unicode standard.
  Additionally, this release includes an upgrade to version
  5.2 of the standard.

* New experimental APIs allow developers to extend Perl with 
  "pluggable" keywords and syntax.

* Perl now has a better sense of time and will be able to keep
  accurate time well past the "Y2038" barrier.

* New syntax allows developers to specify package version numbers
  directly in "package" statements

* Perl now warns the user about the use of deprecated features
  by default.

I agree, we're already looking into it but it seems more tests fail with
5.14. Also the wanted 64 bit support is holding us back. The (32 bit)
5.12.3 packages listed above are working fine but all our (binary) modules
are for 5.10 so it's not really usable.
