Changes between 0.9.1c and 0.9.2
+ *) Be less restrictive and allow also `perl util/perlpath.pl
+ /path/to/bin/perl' in addition to `perl util/perlpath.pl /path/to/bin',
+ because this way one can also use an interpreter named `perl5' (which is
+ usually the name of Perl 5.xxx on platforms where an Perl 4.x is still
+ installed as `perl').
+ [Matthias Loepfe <Matthias.Loepfe@adnovum.ch>]

*) Let util/clean-depend.pl work also with older Perl 5.00x versions.
