It's /usr/bin/perl, but not part of any installed package according to dpkg on my N800.
Thanks for looking into it!
EDIT: Just read rattis' post.. apparently it belongs to a package called perl-base, I guess I'll just have to go searching/googling for it. It's not in any of the repos I have installed.

It looks like I'm not the only one that has this. If it helps, here is the list of packages I have installed.
becomeroot, camera, canola, fbreader-maemo2, fmradio, iphome, less, libenca0,libpcap0.8, load-applet, ncurses-base, osso-xterm, pwsafe, statusbarclock, ttf-bitstream-vera, and lastly vim.
compare them to yours, and see if they match. Maybe one of the packages installed it, maybe it didn't.
another option might be to try apt-get install perl as root. (do at your own risk).
edit: I forgot SSH is also installed (not drop bear).

I may have to ask you for your repository list, actually. (/etc/apt/sources.list)
With that one it should be possible to figure out where perl-base comes from. But I'm going to look around a bit by myself first, there was a thread with lots of repos and there's also that search trick posting by someone a while ago -- going to try that.

Edit: Found perl debs in http://repository.maemo.org/pool/gregale/free/p/perl/
I'm going to try to install some of this.. there doesn't seem to be perl packages for bora.
