This message was originally posted on gentoo-perl so it could fester and mature a little first (but then I jumped the gun and decided to post it here :).
OK, I've done an initial weeding of this list and taken out the obvious "we wouldn't be a distro without these" packages. The following list are those ebuilds in dev-perl that are never depended on by another package. I did do a quick scan of ChangeLog's, following up on referenced bugs. Please let me know if there is anything here that should justifiably be kept (the goal is to remove some of the cruft in dev-perl and get it down to stuff that is actually needed). Thanks kids!
