+=head1 Minimizing the Perl installation
+
+The following section is meant for people worrying about squeezing the
+Perl installation into minimal systems (for example when installing
+operating systems, or in really small filesystems).
+
+In the following we offer two different slimmed down installation
+recipes.  They are informative, not normative: the choice of files
+depends on what you need.
+
+Firstly, the bare minimum to run this script
+
+  use strict;
+  use warnings;
+  foreach my $f (</*>) {
+     print("$f\n");
+  }
+
+in Solaris is as follows (under $Config{prefix}):
+
+  ./bin/perl
+  ./lib/perl5/5.6.1/sun4-solaris-64int/auto/DynaLoader/autosplit.ix
+  ./lib/perl5/5.6.1/sun4-solaris-64int/auto/DynaLoader/dl_expandspec.al
+  ./lib/perl5/5.6.1/sun4-solaris-64int/auto/DynaLoader/dl_find_symbol_anywhere.al
+  ./lib/perl5/5.6.1/sun4-solaris-64int/auto/DynaLoader/dl_findfile.al
+  ./lib/perl5/5.6.1/sun4-solaris-64int/auto/File/Glob/Glob.so
+  ./lib/perl5/5.6.1/sun4-solaris-64int/auto/File/Glob/autosplit.ix
+  ./lib/perl5/5.6.1/sun4-solaris-64int/Config.pm
+  ./lib/perl5/5.6.1/sun4-solaris-64int/XSLoader.pm
+  ./lib/perl5/5.6.1/sun4-solaris-64int/DynaLoader.pm
+  ./lib/perl5/5.6.1/sun4-solaris-64int/CORE/libperl.so
+  ./lib/perl5/5.6.1/strict.pm
+  ./lib/perl5/5.6.1/warnings.pm
+  ./lib/perl5/5.6.1/Carp.pm
+  ./lib/perl5/5.6.1/Exporter.pm
+  ./lib/perl5/5.6.1/File/Glob.pm
+  ./lib/perl5/5.6.1/AutoLoader.pm
+  ./lib/perl5/5.6.1/vars.pm
+  ./lib/perl5/5.6.1/warnings/register.pm
+  ./lib/perl5/5.6.1/Carp/Heavy.pm
+  ./lib/perl5/5.6.1/Exporter/Heavy.pm
+
+Secondly, Debian perl-base package contains the following files,
+size about 1.2MB in its i386 version:
+
+  /usr/share/doc/perl/Documentation
