I'm currently bitten hard by a bug which was introduced by RedHat in their perl releases. This bug has been fixed "recently", to be true in January, by RedHat.
The bug I'm talking about is a performance issue, which is caused by overloading blessed functions:

The bug fix (January 2009):
http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2009-0117.html
claims to fix
379791 - perl bless/overload performance problem
I wanted to ask if we can expect CentOS to release a new version of perl soon, or if we should rather tend building our own packages. I'd prefer the CentOS update, due to the reason that I don't know if we'll have the same problems with this in mod_perl as well.
Kind regards,
Georg
