I compiled perl from source on Mandrake 9.1.

All 3 work.  But if I add a second tag before the ':errno_h", then I
get an error.

The "use" line that makes git-cvsimport compile for me is:

        use POSIX qw(strftime dup2 ENOENT);

Which just imports the required symbol and not the full tag list.

Cheers,
Geoff.
