If we change unused_oids to a Perl implementation, we will add
additional inconvenience to users who don't have /usr/bin/perl in that
exact location. Versus allowing use by users who don't have /bin/sh. I
don't know what the ratio between those two camps is, among potential
users of unused_oids. But most of the discussion so far appeared to be
under the impression that unused_oids is called from a makefile, which
is not correct.
