The 1st architecture indicates perl-5.5.x, the 2nd one indicates perl-5.6.x.
What you're looking for is <ARCHITECTURE NAME="MSWin32-x86-multi-thread-5.8" />

MJD says "you can't just make shit up and expect the computer to know what you mean, retardo!"
I run a Win32 PPM repository for perl 5.6.x and 5.8.x -- I take requests (README).
