Guesswork: there's something wrong with whatever is producing the above error
output; it's not comparing perl versions correctly. Probably it wants (in
human readable terms) perl >= 5.6.1, but fails/yells when 5.8.8 is installed.
BTW, EL-3 already has perl 5.8.0, EL-4 has 5.8.5, and EL-5 has 5.8.8.
