"perl -e 'print $]'" returns "5.006001" for me. What's the most reliable way
to derive perl56.lib from that? I'm thinking:

  _re_perl_version = re.compile(r'(\d+)\.(\d{3})')

  def perl_library(version):
    match = _re_perl_version.match(version)
    return 'perl' + match.group(1) + str(int(match.group(2))) + '.lib'

  perl_library('5.006001')

Does this work on perl 5.8?
