I'm trying to install a number of perl modules, and yum gives up with
perl-Sys-Filesystem, because it has a dependency of
perl(:MODULE_COMPAT_5.8.8)

I've tried seeing what provides it, and yum says nothing. I also see,
googling, that there was a problem thread on this list in '08 with the
same dependency. Anyone have a clue, or workaround?

Not sure where you get your perl-Sys-Filesystem from but it
works for me:
