This is already mostly done, hmp has ported sockstat (which should be the last
application that requires perl in our base), so I think we all are almost
holding our breath for him to actually commit it. :) So when his sockstat port
is commit we will probably remove perl as soon as possible, that is at least my
wish. If you find any other tools that needs to be converted from perl please do
so and post your patches here.
