Fortunately, that statement in the topic TWikiOnMacOSX is wrong; see the italicized corrections right below it. It sounds like the note's author ran into the "try to install 5.8" CPAN problem we all know and love. Also, those notes are talking about the next release (BeijingRelease). The current release has some Mac OS X-related issues (listed at the end of the topic) but FWIW my two low-use intallations on Mac OS X 10.1.x using the stock Perl 5.6.1 and unmodified TWiki sources are working just fine.
