There was an agreement on 5.6.1 a few weeks back on IRC, if I recall
correctly, I haven't heard anything about 5.8.
This change was made here:
r11744 | bernhard | 2006-02-26 05:55:39 -0500 (Sun, 26 Feb 2006) | 7
lines
Configuration:
- Sprinkle a few 'use warnings;'
- Some code beautification
- Explicit use of Parrot::BuildUtil::parrot_version()
- Use the 'our' syntax in Configure.pl
- $description in the steps, needs no trailing '...'
Bernhard, was the upgrade to 5.8 intentional and necessary?

You'll also need Perl 5.6 or above to run various configure and

but Configure.pl complains
$ perl Configure.pl
Perl v5.8.0 required--this is only v5.6.2, stopped at
Configure.pl line 243.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at Configure.pl line 243.
I have no strong opinion on which version to use, but the two files
ought to
agree.
