.... it appears that perl 5.6 will accept 'EQ' and 'NE' as valid syntax, but perl-5.8.0 requires them to be lower-case. Some of the scripts used in the installation of the QuickTime 6.0.2 update use the upper-case versions and cause problems (the upgrade installation fails due to syntax errors in the postflight script).

I switched my /usr/bin/perl to point to the original perl-5.6.0 and it installed fine. The above web-site tells you how to fix the scripts to work with perl-5.8.0.
