Keith,

I don't know whether it is officially supported or approved by HP, but I know for sure that it can be compiled and executes successfully.
I got the stable tarball from
http://www.cpan.org/src/index.html
which holds the latest stable Perl sources (Perl 5.6) and copiled this using gcc and the binutils from the Ports mirrors mentioned above.
Good luck
