Mark Murray 797ed92386 Upgrade this to perl5.6.0 for _knowledgeable_ folks in STABLE who
really want it.

This is still marked FORBIDDEN as there may be all sorts of horrible
incompatabilities with the perl5 in "base", but folks who are willing
to override this and experiment are welcome.

Consider this to be only partially supported. I'll happily commit
patches and fixes, but I don't want to answer too many questions.

Sorry!

Perl is a language that combines some of the features of C, sed,
awk and shell. See the manual page for more hype. There are also
many published by O'Reilly & Assoc. See pod/perlbook.pod for more
information.

This port is marked FORBIDDEN as it conflics badly with the Perl5
that is in the 'base' system. Sysadmins and users who know how to
override this may do so, and must accept the risk of doing so.
