Out of curiosity: I've experienced fun with new PHP versions as well
but I don't remember anything serious with Perl updates (I might be
biased a bit ...).

Which kind of problems did you see with new Perl versions (I could
imagine incompatible old third-party software), and is there
something the Debian perl maintainers and/or the Debian Perl Group
can do to improve the situation?
