Don't use the preinstalled (and archaic) version of Perl -- build and 
install your own Perl version 5.8.7?

Personally, I never modify the o/s installed Perl; I always use my own 
version.
I don't have to use root privileges to add to the installation.
I don't have to worry about whether I'll break something in the o/s because 
I changed or added something.
