I don't think that's much of a problem nowadays.  :)  (Note that even
etch had perl 5.8.)

The only remaining purpose of this bug report is to request a non-Perl
version of logtail.  Given how any non-trivial Debian box has perl
installed, is it worth keeping this open?  (Are there people out there
running logtail on PDAs?)
