>Description:
Perl-5.8 runs a perl binary to figure out if it can use the binary.  A
proper perl binary is expected to return "VER_OK\n".  However, if LANG
is set, it dumps some warnings before it prints "VER_OK\n" as follows:

  perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
  perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:
          LC_ALL = (unset),
          LANG = "en_US.UTF-8"
      are supported and installed on your system.
  perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C").
  VER_OK

Since perl58 uses the follwing condition, it rejects the binary if it
prints anything before "VER_OK\n".

  ($val =~ /^VER_OK/)

lang/perl5 doesn't have such a problem because it uses a less strict
condition: ($val =~ /VER_OK/).

>How-To-Repeat:

In lang/perl58,

% env LANG=en_US.UTF-8 make

>Fix:
