Right, all non-any perl packages should be rebuilt. I'll send Kevin a 
preliminary TODO list for such packages in extra and community (I found 
209 of them... yerk! but as you say there must be many that are actually 
arch=any). Most probably we also need to rebuild all packages that use 
libperl.so. Last year the list of such pkgs was:

claws-mail-extra-plugins
gnumeric
gvim
inkscape
irssi
mod_perl
rxvt-unicode
rxvt-unicode-256color
vim
weechat
xchat
xchat-gnome

Any other since?

I just found these:

gnupod
smtpprox
colordiff
hacburn
perlpanel
postfix-policyd-spf-perl

If you know any other then please report it on FlySpray, thanks!
