You might also want to mention perl and libgdbm. I can't tell you
exactly what went wrong, but both machines I upgraded had a core-dumping
perl. With lots of install scripts written in perl that makes a fine
mess.

I think the first time perl crashed it was because the old perl couldn't
handle the new locale files. The second time was due to a wrong
libgdbm-something.
