perl-5.8.1-1 problem: TW.dll is 182 megabytes

Hallo Eric,

Strange, anyway, this is a new problem

setup.ini (mirrors.rcn.net) is also wrong:
version: 5.8.0-4
install: release/perl/perl-5.8.0-4.tar.bz2 2289664
source: release/perl/perl-5.8.0-4-src.tar.bz2 11554916

install: should be 6.5M not 2.2M
