This always makes me wonder: what is the point of having a file in Emacs
where modifying it is not allowed (or at least, is strongly
discouraged)? Why not move it to GNU ELPA? It's not like there isn't
another perl mode in Emacs, which is actually used by default.

Debbugs has the ability to mark a report as forwarded, see
http://debbugs.gnu.org/Developer.html#forward
Such reports are not usually closed.
