Does anybody want to give their thoughts on how we fix this for people
wanting to upgrade their version of Perl to 5.14 ???

Of the affected, I can personally see several that in the future will
affect me as I go about learning & implementing new stuff ???

I can of course -and will if no general solution is found- implement my
proposal locally in my patch-repo, but I'ld rather see a solution for
everybody instead of me just going my own way
