Perl 5.40

[bremner]

Any advice on running with Perl 5.40? The test suite apparently passes when the check for perl 5.40 is disabled. Are there any known issues or should we (Debian) just try it?

You could build and run everything? Then you can take it. I've tried the perl-blead branch now, and it has required one small patch, as perl guts continue to change. This will arrive with the next regular polymake release, presumably somewhere in the falls.
