I'm not sure we want 2.3 so please import 2.4 instead (I've seen a few
discussions in perl5-porters about 2.3 and everyone said to get at least
2.3.7). 

Beware than many things have changed since 2.1, especially the fact that it
doesn't create .orig by default. Many will get bitten by this I
guess. There is an environment variable to set if you want the good ol'
behaviour (which shouldn't have been changed IMO).
