If you do this, you will have to modify the perl scripts to remove the -w flag from their hash-bang line. "/usr/bin/env perl -w" does not seem to do the expected thing.
Insofar as compatibility is concerned, perl's -w flag is equivalent to the 'use warnings' language pragma, which has been supported since 5.6 (circa 2000). Seeing as perl's Unicode support did not really mature until 5.8, I imagine that adding the 'use warnings' pragma and doing away with the -w flag would be a reasonable approach to take.
