including perl I learned. However, it's _very_ easy to install the perl 
source RPM, change the -Uuselargefiles to -Duselargefiles in the spec file,
rpm -bb perl.spec (don't forget to update the Release number) and you'll 
have a nice new perl RPM in a few minutes which works with large files
perfectly.

I'm sure debian has a similar mechanism someplace.
