The f20-perl tag was merged back before the mass rebuild was started. so everything in the mass rebuild was built against the new perl. however because the perl rebuild was at a week there was quite a few packages rebuilt against the old perl. we need to work out how to build perl quicker. your analysis is not really correct.
