Since my d48b284183 ("perl: bump the required Perl version to 5.8 from 5.6.[21]", 2010-09-24), we've depended on 5.8, so there's no reason to conditionally require File::Temp and File::Spec anymore. They were first released with perl versions v5.6.1 and 5.00405, respectively. This code was originally added in c14c8ceb13 ("Git.pm: Make File::Spec and File::Temp requirement lazy", 2008-08-15), presumably to make Git.pm work on 5.6.0.
