Maybe Automake shouldn't use: use warnings FATAL => 'all';Changed to just "use warnings;", as Jacob also noted. I also took the opportunity to systematize on use 5.006; use strict; use warnings; all on one line to reduce real estate usage. Not all files use 5.006, and I'd be a bit surprised if Automake actually works with 5.006 (or if anyone still has it around), but I didn't worry about any of that.
Perl 5.6 (which is 5.006 in the old notation) should still be readily available with perlbrew and I tested Automake with it just about two years ago. It worked then, although I did end up submitting patches to fix two minor issues with the testsuite.
