Even better, use the RPMs I've already built. Some of them are newer
than the version on CPAN, and some of them are installed into
different places to avoid conflicts with perl-5.6.0.
(By the way, I've upgraded our RT server to Perl 5.6.1, and the
segfaulting I mention in README has gone away, so that answers *that*
question. But that perl 5.6.0 was a paper-bag release wasn't exactly a
secret. :-)
