linuxgeek: [nslu2-linux] New slimrat from repository require perl with useithreads (arm)

The slimrat was updated to newest version (thanks)

ipkg info slimrat

but it doesn't work because it needs perl to be compile with threads support. I have the latest version of perl

ipkg info perl

Status: install user installed

but it's doesn't have useithreads flag enabled:

perl -V | grep useithreads
usethreads=undef use5005threads=undef useithreads=undef usemultiplicity=undef

So I am requesting for new perl package with useithreads flag enabled.

thanks
