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.
