  Description     : extract delimited text sequences from strings

 Text::Balanced extracts a delimited substring, possibly
 after skipping a specified prefix string. By default, that
 prefix is optional whitespace (/\s*/), but you can change it
 to whatever you wish.
 .
 The modules does not extract the first occurrence of a substring
 anywhere in a string (like an unanchored regex would), instead it
 extracts an occurrence of the substring appearing immediately at
 the current matching position in the string (like a G-anchored
 regex would).

This perl module is needed by a new extension to emdebian-tools to make
it easier to deal with uClibc in Emdebian.
