I've only started looking into Perl 5. It comes with lots of examples
(the POSIX and xDBM stuff), but not a whole lot of docs yet. Still a pain
compared to extending Tcl, but probably worth the effort :-) Of course
if you can regularize all the AFS commands under Tcl you can just use
the afstcl command from within perl. Still not as pretty of course.
