Because one doesn't know if the perl is the same than the one
used for configuration,
My hypothesis is that the code is written to work with most any
non-ancient perl and does not depend on configure-time tests.
and this could even open security issues.
Shrug. Executing any program at any time is a security issue. If a Bad
Guy has created an executable perl in the PATH, the system is hopelessly
compromised anyway.
that it is better to have a repdroducable wrong path than a 'random' one.
Ok, if that's what you want. I don't insist.
