I'm wondering whether you have plans to update perl to 5.24. The biber

supported and I can get rid of the the horrible circumfix operator syntax".
The RC1 for 5.24.1 is available now. If it's binary compatible with the
5.22 modules, I could update Perl without too much trouble, I think.
Thanks. The INSTALL file says that it's not binary compatible and that
XS modules will have to be recompiled. It looks like we have about 8 of
those in the distro.
