There is now a perl package in the c5-testing repo that fix's these issues. Unless I hear reports of breakage in the next 24 hrs, will push that out via the fasttrack repo and make some announcements.

Also, if you do test it - and it does work fine : let us know about that too.

Karanbir, if we have axiom, I believe it's still valid, that we are lim 100 pct binary compatible with upstream, patched perl package should be pushed out via centosplus. David Hrbáč

How might a bug fix, and this one in particular, break binary compatibility? Does it change an API? Does it change the expected behaviour of PERL? (I'm assuming here that the current behaviour is _not_ expected behaviour).
