[Robert P. J. Day]

  if someone wants to tweak this, shouldn't the top-level README file
mention a need for perl on the build system?

The prerequisites checks also for perl. The prereq check is runs automatically 
for the first time if you run 'make menuconfig'. But you can also use the 
prereq target (make prereq) at any time. Currently most distributions have a 
working perl installed anyway.

$ make menuconfig
