If you're adventurous, have a look at
ftp://ftp.sems.com/pub/outgoing/perl5.0/perl5.002beta1.tar.gz
Many thanks to Andy for doing the integration.
Obviously, if you consult the bugs database, you'll note there are
still plenty of buglets that need fixing, and several enhancements that
I've intended to put in still haven't made it in (Hi, Tim and Ilya).
But I think it'll be pretty stable. And you can start to fiddle around
with prototypes (which are, of course, still totally undocumented).
Packrats, don't worry too much about readvertising this widely.
Nowadays we're on a T1 here, so our bandwidth is okay.
Have the appropriate amount of jollity.
Larry

To apply, change to your perl directory and apply with
patch -p1 -N < thispatch.
After you apply this patch, I would recommend:
rm config.sh
sh Configure [whatever options you use]
make depend
make
make test
Here are the highlights:
Linux fixes: Now correctly sets & uses stdio _ptr and _cnt
tricks only when feasible (Configure, config_h.SH, config_H,
doio.c, sv.c x2p/str.c)
#!path-to-perl fixed to use $binexp instead of $bin. This should
really be fixed to do the correct perl start-up stuff. Volunteers?
(c2ph.SH, h2ph.SH, h2xs.SH, makeaperl.SH, perldoc.SH,
pod/pod2*.SH, x2p/find2perl.SH, x2p/s2p.SH)
hint updates: hints/apollo.sh, hints/linux.sh, hints/freebsd.sh,
hints/sco_3.sh.
xsubpp version 1.7. (includes CASE support)
pod/perlbot updates.
my lib/AutoLoader patch (to use @INC).
[ON]DBM_File/Makefile.PL now have a few hint files.
Other sundry small things.
Patch and enjoy,
