There is no need to put a 5 there.  My machines at work calle the current
perl "perl", and number experimental or old releases.  So in /usr/bin I
have perl, perl5.005_02, perl5.005_53, perl4, etc., and perl itself is
really perl5.004_04.  If you want to put a 5 there as a reminder under
MacPerl, it doesn't hurt anything, but it doesn't do anything, either.

I wasn't sure what you meant by it, so I am just clarifying.

Yes, it will.  The # is optional.  (Not that this has anything to do with
Perl :).
