I'm in favor of dropping the perl version, but note that this paragraph isn't quite accurate. There was at least one more regression after that, solved by fb094cb583 (Merge branch 'js/add-p-diff-parsing-fix', 2022-09-09). I'd probably leave the final decision on its status to Johannes. This is (I think) the last time we discussed it: https://lore.kernel.org/git/rsrn5988-37n4-7q45-s1o9-6n40rropp120@xxxxxx/ That was 6 months ago, so maybe it's time now. -Peff
