I do agree with Martin's initial rant about using perl here. This is simply wrong. I couldn't find any other bash completion script relying on perl. Doing so would be wrong from a performance perspective. Even from a dependency perspective it is wrong. While quilt does indeed use perl for several helper scripts, none of these is mandatory. You can do a lot with quilt without ever running guards, dependency-graph, edmail or remove-trailing-ws. So, please, no perl for bash completion. Please do the best you can with sed, grep, awk and friends.
