      5 # SYNOPSIS
      6 #
      7 #   AX_PROG_PERL_VERSION([VERSION],[ACTION-IF-TRUE],[ACTION-IF-FALSE])
      8 #
      9 # DESCRIPTION
     10 #
     11 #   Makes sure that perl supports the version indicated. If true the shell
     12 #   commands in ACTION-IF-TRUE are executed. If not the shell commands in
     13 #   ACTION-IF-FALSE are run. Note if $PERL is not set (for example by
     14 #   running AC_CHECK_PROG or AC_PATH_PROG) the macro will fail.
     15 #
     16 #   Example:
     17 #
     18 #     AC_PATH_PROG([PERL],[perl])
     19 #     AX_PROG_PERL_VERSION([5.8.0],[ ... ],[ ... ])
     20 #
     21 #   This will check to make sure that the perl you have supports at least
     22 #   version 5.8.0.
     23 #
     24 #   NOTE: This macro uses the $PERL variable to perform the check.
     25 #   AX_WITH_PERL can be used to set that variable prior to running this
     26 #   macro. The $PERL_VERSION variable will be valorized with the detected
     27 #   version.
