The Perl used in core-git is pretty forgiving of older versions of Perl, back to at least 5.6. (Going back to 5.005.003 is rather painful, however, to be honest.)

The only major tool I can think of that has embedded Perl in the shell script is format-patch. That could probably be redone in pure Perl if it would help.
