I am still not understanding. The sysroot is populated once before
anything in configure/compile/install/package executes. How would perl
then magically appear later on in the sysroot?
It's not populated just once. Any task can add things to the RSS as the
build progresses. However, the RSS is only cleaned out at one specific
point early in the build, which I can't recall ATM.
