Please don't use either. There are currently two cases where Perl is
required by modular Xorg and I have submitted patches to replace the
first program with a small C program and the second with an awk script.
I'm quite happy that xorg has a relatively small dependency chain and
Perl or Python would be a strong regression.

That doesn't mean that this can't be trivally replaced with an awk
script. I don't know if there's any interest in that as I haven't heard
much feedback about the earlier patches either :-)
