On second thought, this isn't going to work, as perl is part of the
build group which we install into every buildroot, and we can't install
it due to gdbm missing deps.  We'll have to introduce a compat-gbdm
temporarily to get perl/python et al rebuilt.  We are untagging the new
gdbm in the mean time.
