That, and I'd be cautious about mixing "distribution" and CPAN PERL-modules.
Slight incompatibilites (esp. when using the OS's preferred auto-update 
mechanism) can lead to hard-to-track-down errors.

There's a reason why it's said to be best to roll your own install of 
perl in /usr/local and use that - but I don't know if that still applies 
(or even more so today).
Personally, I will always try to use FreeBSD, because that gives the 
least head-aches, RT-wise.
But I can see why people want to (or must) run RHEL (or SLES) as a 
base-OS - they just need to be very careful and make some decision on 
the PERL-modules beforehand.



cheers,
Rainer
