are the people at perl aware of the propolice bug? i can't find it in
their bug ticket search ... as for the other changes, i'm skimming
their changelog, and i've only seen a couple of security fixes (in
sudoperl) directly listed, a lot of win32 changes (useless for LFS,
but important to many others) ... and a single change that directly
references uClibc ...

Silence a compilation warning
Branch: maint-5.8/perl
!> perlio.c pp_sort.c
----------------------------
so which would be more secure? the disabling cflags route or the older
perl version? ... also, where does it (5.8.7) break? i'm almost there
in tonight's build, i may just find out for myself on the breakage ...
but which do you guys want me to play with then report on?
