In Perl 5 land, the advantage of the perlbug program is that it captures the output of perl -V, which is often invaluable in categorising or identifying the cause of bugs. e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] doesn't always have this. perlbug has the option to save the bug report to a file, which can then be mailed later.
