bug#23077: Perl's closure is too big


From: Thompson, David
Subject: bug#23077: Perl's closure is too big

If you run 'guix size perl' you will notice that, as of this writing,
138.2MiB of Perls' 307.6MiB closure is due to referencing gcc's
default output in '/lib/perl5/5.22.1/x86_64-linux/Config_heavy.pl'.
Perl's large closure inflates the closures of many other packages,
such as openssl.

Does anyone familiar with Perl know if we really need to a reference
to GCC here?  Would be great to remove it. :)

- Dave
