Some simple squishing down to 49 char: 
sub f {
#234567890#234567890#234567890#234567890#234567890#
$b=1;$b+=1+!$_%4-!$_%100+!$_%400for(1..pop);$b%=7
}

UPDATE - I was just compression what the parent post had, making sure my answer gave the same as that one, but not looking at the real answer. As pointed out below, '!' binds higher than '%', and thus the answer this gives is wrong. Adding parens, and the fix that japhy adds brings this to 53: 
sub f {
#234567890#234567890#234567890#234567890#234567890#23
$b=1;$b+=1+!($_%4)-!($_%100)+!($_%400)for 1..pop;$b%7
}

It's not what you know, but knowing how to find it if you don't know that's important
