[..]This should allow you to do an upgrade rather then remove and upgrade.
If it's possible to do that (and have it actually work), does that mean that
it's only on Windows (with ActiveState Perl) that Perl 5.6 and 5.8 are not
binary compatible for XS modules? If not, I would think that simply
upgrading Perl and not all the other modules you have installed would
seriously bork the install...
two different issues.
the upgrade will upgrade and install the XS compatible for 5.8.X version of the code for all of the components that are in the RPM.
any additional perl modules that have an XS component will need to be re-built and installed.
