Considering that stable.tar.gz on CPAN is now pointing to Perl 5.005.02
and I'm having no problems with it, I'll be releasing it this weekend.
Sorry I've been a bit slow, I'm working on buying a house.

After I get the basic Perl package out (for testing and module
recompilation), I plan on releasing another that has most of the bugs
fixed.  I also plan on making experimental packages of threaded Perl and 
the latest development Perl later in the week.

BTW, Joey, some of my projects could *really* use threaded Perl as
well.  But it's considered experimental in 5.005 and just isn't up to
snuff in a production environment.
