>From Jose on fedora-perl-devel-list:

   Removing support for perl 5.8.3 and perl 5.8.4 reduces the number
   of directories in the perl search path (@INC), which improves the
   perl modules loading time.

   This has already been done in past for FC-4 where support for
   perl 5.8.0/5.8.1/5.8.2 has dropped.
