We use the perl-MIME-tools package from EPEL, the latest version of
which is version 5.420.

Which is perfectly reasonable.

But: if you release a new version of MIMEDefang that requires perl
5.10, then it means that we can't upgrade beyond the latest version
that still works with perl 5.8, because we aren't even close to being
able to deploy RHEL6 (which includes perl 5.10) on production servers
yet.

I expect many other sites may be in the same situation.
