Subject: HEADS UP! Perl version number change!

Hello!

Perl5's version number has had to change; it is no longer 5.006, now
it is 5.6.0 in accordance with Perl standards. I tried hard to keep
with established tradition, but this did not work.

${DEITY}, I hate the Perl build.

This means that you should get do a 'make world' and 'mergemaster'
to get all the directories and /etc area right (unless you know
what you are doing, of course :-) ).

Side effect; suidperl is no longer unreliable.
