I need Params::Util ≥ 0.38 for File::Find::Rule::Perl.

The only incompatible change would be the removal of the long-deprecated
_CALLABLE function (which the current version already issues a warning about
when used), and there are a large number of bug-fixes and enhancements.

If the _CALLABLE function is an issue, it could trivially be re-added:

# Will stay around until end-2006 with a warning, then will be deleted.
sub _CALLABLE {
        warn "_CALLABLE has been deprecated. Change to _CODELIKE";
        _CODELIKE(@_);
}
(plus add _CALLABLE to @EXPORT_OK)

EL-6 has 1.00 (the next version after 0.38), which would be a good version to
use.

I (pghmcfc) would be happy to co-maintain this package and do the update myself
if you're too busy.
