Does anyone see a problem with this? If so, I guess I can always put a

re-install over the standard Apple location.

Um, yes. any script with /usr/bin/perl will fail. Removing standard system components is Not Smart™.

Apple things DO use /usr/bin/perl, like for example some postinstall scripts. The Quicktime 6.0.2 update uses some perl that breaks under 5.8 (they may have fixed the installer by now, but the first version broke)
