Failed dependencies: perl(\s+) is needed by rpm-build

Good evening,

today I bootstrapped latest HEAD and I got the following error when trying
to install the RPM packages:

error: Failed dependencies:
        perl(\s+) is needed by rpm-build-5.2-0.1.20081025cvs.i386

After a bit of investigating, it looks like

  http://rpm5.org/cvs/chngview?cn=10993

gets catched up with "use \s+ base" if I'm not absolutely wrong. Can
somebody please have a look to that who is just much more confident with
that code and the magic of perl hacking?


Greetings,
  Robert
