After spending some time with this over the rest of the weekend, I
came to the same conclusions.

I don't want to be a pain, so I think I'll let the irssi maintainer
get to it at their own pace.  I will, however,
attempt to install 5.10 in parallel as you suggest. I'd rather have
the updated version of perl, as I've just
installed mosh, and mosh will not operate with the older perl package.

Thank you much,
Sean P Murphy
