Tie::File ships as part of core Perl for all non-EOL versions, so I

Which are those?
5.12 and 5.14 are still supported.  5.10 and earlier are EOL.

Well, they need to get their story straight. <http://www.cpan.org/src/README.html> says:

   Please note that branches earlier than 5.8 are no longer supported,
   though fixes for urgent issues, for example severe security
   problems, may still be issued.

What is more, ignoring 5.10 and older would simply foolish. Those versions are live on many of the platforms we build Postgres on, and in quite modern distributions too, for example in RHEL 6.

Anyway, they point seems moot in this context.

cheers
