I did a general call for patches over a week ago.

This was discussed, but I think the Perl maintainer, tobez, didn't think 5.8.2 was ready. I'm certainly all for doing this, but I don't want to disrupt working ports. If tobez agrees, this should be something we will definitely test on the next experimental patches build.
