Which operating systems ship perl 5 as core? As far as I know it's
Solaris (5.6.1 currently)
AIX
OS X ("5.8.1 RC3")
Most Linux distributions
Does HP UX? Irix?
How many use perl to write core system tools?
Not linux, at least slackware (bash based) and RH (bash and python based)

how people prefer to communicate.
