I've read all the messages in this thread, but I'm still unclear -- are we
talking about building the "miniperl" that Perl already creates during the
build process?  If not, the minimal perl for building the FreeBSD kernel
should have a different name, like:
	smallperl
	modestperl
	tightperl
	midgetperl
	petiteperl
or something similar.  I see much potential for confusion if "miniperl"
means different Perl builds in different contexts.
