Is it worth mentioning on the wiki entry that your method allows a LMS
7.7.X  broken by the move from perl 5.14 to 5.16 or 5.18 to be revived
without loss of cached data, db,  logs etc. ?

In debian at least, you have the “squeezeboxserver” user and can't you
simply re-use all the relevant existing /var/lib/... and var/log..
files?  Once you've built your own perl version etc. using your
instructions,  isn't all you need to do is to edit the
/etc/int.d/logitechmediaserver file and relevant logrotate.d entry
before restarting LMS?

It's also possible to run a version of LMS according to your
instructions alongside say a nightly  build if your create a new
separate set of  /var/lib/... and /var.log/... files (and if necessary
etc/...files) along with and a relevant init.d and logrotate.d file. 
This is what I did at the weekend.
