Successfully upgraded PAR-Packer version 0.978 in ActivePerl 5.8.8.817.
A pp build then fails:

Following the suggestion in this thread:
http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.par/2006/11/msg2712.html
C:\> perl -MPAR::StrippedPARL::Static -e
"PAR::StrippedPARL::Static->write_parl('test_parl.exe');"
Perl lib version (v5.8.8) doesn't match executable version (v5.8.6) at

It looks like I'm getting the wrong version from bribes.

The ppd (http://www.bribes.org/perl/ppm/PAR-Packer.ppd) looks like it
will use the 56 version for my perl, instead of 58..?
