What version of perl is needed for this to work?  I get the following
error when I build maxima:

cd . \
  && /bin/sh /apps/public/src/toy/maxima-new/missing --run makeinfo   \
       `echo maxima.texi | sed 's,.*/,,'`
perl ./build_index.pl maxima.info ':crlf' > maxima-index.lisp
Unknown open() mode '<:crlf' at ./build_index.pl line 25.

Do I need to set up my locale or anything?
