Times have changed, perl is fairly ubiquitous, perhaps it is time to drop
that rule... Also, with a couple of eager packagers, the configuration
could be made to do the work of figuring out where perl lives (if
anywhere) and do the right thing. On the other hand, perhaps a separate
package of minc extras might make it easier for those only interested in
"core" minc. Thoughts, Steve?
