Now imagine a non-posix system where an upgrade was made. Amongst
other things perl was moved, i.e. from /opt/perl-5.8.8 to
/usr/local/{bin,lib}. Suddenly git breaks.

Building new perl for sources never removed,
by itself, older perls on the system. Did it ever for you ?

No. But a strange package management program will remove the old perl.
