Description

The GPL v1 license undergoes minor editorial changes from time to time without incrementing the version number. Examples of such modifications include the addition of links to the FSF resources or the change in the FSF physical address. The revision embedded in the perlgpl.pod file seems to differ from the revision provided on the GNU website (https://www.gnu.org/licenses/old-licenses/gpl-1.0.html) which is probably the latest one.

I have not thoroughly inspected the differences, but one of the reason the perlgpl.pod file should be updated is that it currently list the incorrect physical address of the FSF (51 Franklin St, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA).
