Where are you actually using a 5.10 feature?
Where lib/Automake/FileUtils.pm says "use Time::HiRes qw(stat);". This
does not work with Perl 5.6.
For why we bumped the version to 5.10, please see:
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/autoconf.git/commit/?id=61901a1a14fd50c03cfb1529d091554376fef286
Please do not arbitrarily bump version requirements just to bump version
requirements.
That's not what was done here. The abovementioned URL says version
requirements were bumped from 5.6 to 5.10 because the feature is not
present in 5.6 (2000), is present in 5.10 (2007), and we lacked access
to the museum pieces in the middle. If you are sure that a version
number lower than 5.10 will do, please let us know.
