Could you please elaborate on the above. Do you mean, rewrite some perl scripts or something else?

Since I do not work on SVN, that would be tough in the present state for me. SVN does not even ship their perl bindings for perl 5.10 and I just could not build it from source. I was considering hacking 'svk' to bring back p4 support (which has been dropped in its current avatar).

I will look into it.

No promises here as I do not know the complexity of perl scripts.
