Here's one suggestion using hash slices:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
my @list = qw(a z b y c x);
my @list2 = qw(zulu charlie xray yankee bravo alpha);
my %hash;
@hash{@list} = @list2;
my @sorted = @hash{sort @list};
print "@sorted\n";
Update: OK. Misunderstood the question. In that
case it's:
@hash{sort @list} = sort @list2;
my @sorted = @hash{@list};
but merlyn's solution is better :(

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
