(or rsync -avz --delete ftp.linux.activestate.com::perl-5.8.x perl-5.8.x)

As mentioned earlier, we are at code freeze for RC5, with one exception
(which has changed since @21116: Joe McMahon can have one whack at the
perl5db bug [perl #23651] Debugger dump failed for blessed REF object,
an unsuccesful fix was the change #21010, which caused other breakage:
[perl #23749] [@21049] debugger "x" command broken)

Changes since the last;

             In trying to save space, the warnings.pl change (#21107)
             pulled in attributes.pm... and the change didn't seem to
             be that well tested with different configurations.
             Retract #21119, #21117, #21107.

             Loading warnings.pm now loads attributes.pm that loads strict.pm.
             (due to #21107 apparently.) Adjust this test accordingly.
