Perl is used on the kernel Makefile to generate documentation, firmwares

[x86 setup] Document grub < 0.93 as broken

2007-08-02T17:50:43+00:00

Grub older than 0.93 are broken when the kernel setup is bigger than
8K.  This was fixed in 2002, and 0.93 was the first grub version which
fixed this bug.
