Well, I developed it initially with perl 5.005_03, and newer versions work =
with
perl 5.6 (with some trouble due to Parse::ePerl).  Current development is
happening under perl 5.6, and the CVS version works with perl 5.6 (and no
longer uses Parse::ePerl).

I will make a note in the docs that perl 5.005 or better is required.
