Nice writeup - you should have done it on the wiki. And have done so years
ago :-): I've been running my own build for several years now. Not because
my distribution was too bleeding edge, but on the contrary. Still based on
some CentOS5, it comes with Perl 5.8.5 only... First time I built my own
perl was quite a bit of a trial & error experience.

Please note that if you were to build one of the officially supported
architecture/Perl version combinations, you wouldn't have to build these
modules on your own. In 7.8 we have i386 modules up to Perl 5.16, and
x86_64 for 5.16 and up.
