If I were to find system perl to be 5.8, then I certainly would try to install latest version available.
There have not been any significant changes for me to chase the latest version. So current default package version, 5.32.1, on FreeBSD has been fine by me; default of 5.26.3 on Rocky Linux 8 is not bad either. Any version currently being maintained, thanks to cavac for reminding me to be particular about the maintained version, since 5.16+ has been good enough.
Then again have not been using Perl as much since ~2017, none for work, so🤷🏽♂️

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
