Hi,

I'm sure your nitpicks make the perl script more perl like, and are
good suggestions from that view.
However, I'm not a perl hacker, and neither are most other kernel
hackers, and to be honest, for me, the more a perl script looks like
"bash with regexps" the better, because I can actually read, understand
and debug it in that case ;-)

Greetings,
