Perl 5.16 rebuild

Hello,

I'm starting with perl 5.16 rebuild.

All changes will be comitted into `master' git branch and built into separate
`f18-perl' build-root. That means standard rawhide will be unaffected
(including the perl_bootstrap macro) until we merge the f18-perl build-root
back to f18.

I use special script to handle the rebuild (updating sources, computing
dependencies, submitting builds to koji, checking for build result, etc.), so
you do not need to build into f18-perl too. Actually it harms my script
because it looses synchronization resulting in double rebuild commits and
builds which is not necessary.

You can continue to develop in f18, I will check in your changes into
f18-build later.

You can watch the plan and progress at
<https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/perl5.16>.

I'd like to thank to Paul for breaking (hopefully) all the cyclic
dependencies.
