1997	Perl build instructions in chapter 5 out of date?	Chris	lfs-book@…	"The description in Chapter 5 for configuring a minimal Perl seems out of date.

The patch, perl-5.8.8-libc-2.patch, does not apply to 5.8.8 because the file hints/linux.sh does not exist.

The file configure.gnu also does not exist in 5.8.8.

I have confirmed that the MD5sum is correct:
a377c0c67ab43fd96eeec29ce19e8382  perl-5.8.8.tar.bz2

This appears to be applicable to both stable and development versions.

Um... help?
