...we're pretty much beyond what split can do...

Mh, we know the format:

use Data::Dump;
use feature qw(say);

my $line =qq(127.0.0.1 - - [22/Apr/2015:13:35:04 +1000] "GET /bin/admi
+n.pl HTTP/1.1" 401 509);
my @bits  = split /\s/, $line;

dd\@bits;

say qq(Host:    $bits[0]);
say qq(Logname: $bits[1]);
say qq(User:    $bits[2]);
say qq(Time:    $bits[3] $bits[4]);
say qq(Request: $bits[5] $bits[6] $bits[7]);
say qq(Status:  $bits[8]);
say qq(Size:    $bits[9]);

__END__
