Some 5.8.x standard modules will be missing but will be available on CPAN

If that "some" includes; Encode, utf8 and friends, they can not be installed on legacy perl. Anything unicode related will not work or will not be correct.

Also there is an "our()" issue. If this is used, all must be replaced with "use vars"...
