However, your offer to veryify all FreeBSd system perl4 scripts as working under perl5 is admirable. Unfortunately, the real work in getting Perl 5 on FreeBSD is involved in cutting it up and suiting it to our source tree. If you are still interested, send mail saying such to hackers@FreeBSD.ORG. You will be granted immediate attention, since there are many who would like someone to do this work for them.
