Hello!

src:perl currently fails to build from source on sparc64 due to an alignment issue
which results in two testsuite failures:

      Failed 2 tests out of 2623, 99.92% okay.
	re/reg_mesg.t
	re/regex_sets.t

This alignment issue has already been fixed upstream [1] and has also been backported
to Perl 5.36.1. Thus, in order to fix this bug, it's enough to update the perl package
to 5.36.1 or newer.

Thanks,
Adrian
