It makes Perl look like a programming language instead of line noise.
But putting it into a file with .perl extension will make users
recognize it nevertheless.  So

Acked-by: David Kastrup <redacted>

I can fold this patch in and repost (probably not too many people have
applied the previous patches and would require a good fast forward
path, so one would probably not need a 3-commit version built on top
of the existing patches), or you may do so at your discretion.

Thanks, looks much nicer.  I still hope to rationalize Perl away
altogether at some point of time, but...
