 Then your testing has been insufficient. Example: Build an archive of git-
 core on a machine with only perl5.12 installed, then install it on a
 machine with only perl5.14 installed. None of the perl-using bits will
 work.

 This can happen because "git-core-1.7.11.5_0.darwin_11.x86_64.tbz2" is
 produced in both cases. If there was a variant controlling which perl to
 use, it would be e.g. "git-core-1.7.11.5_0+perl512.darwin_11.x86_64.tbz2"
 vs "git-core-1.7.11.5_0+perl514.darwin_11.x86_64.tbz2", and only the
 matching archive would be installed.
