This advice is outdated, because 'cperl-mode.el' is now part of the
Emacs distribution, so it's not necessary to look in the Perl source
directory.

??? Emacs distribution contains a broken, unsupported version of
cperl-mode.el. The source directory contains a working (but
somewhat outdated) supported version.
