After looking at http://source.android.com/release-features it seems likely that Perl might just build right using the Bionic libc, if you can get out of the Dalvik VM. Or maybe you can jump straight to perl 6 by implementing parrot for the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dalvik_virtual_machine http://source.android.com/projects does not list "perl" but that might be because (1) it already works or (2) it's within something else such as "toolchain" instead of, nobody is working on it. What happens if you get the development kit and attempt to compile Perl?
