in reply to Best min. version of perl for use with C embedding?

Besides actually getting it compiled and getting support for it, think of the strings. The regular expression engine in 5.8 does a lot of recursion in situations where later versions iterate when possible. Unicode support has changed a lot. Regular expressions are now first-class entities (since 5.12.0 I believe).
