Which perl. What minor release, what day of the week syntax.

Ask anyone in the distribution business about the joy of perl and you can
listen to the screams for hours.

Perl5 has no formal grammar and you cannot tell what perl of the week
does and perl of last week doesn't do.

That makes it a bad candidate for our toolchain dependencies.
