You're not, but I think the prerequisites docs are misleading.  The Perl
requirement shouldn't be in the "modifying GCC" section. Perl is required when
doing any of:

* regenerating Makefile dependencies in libiberty.
* regenerating libiberty/functions.texi. 
* generating manpages from Texinfo manuals.
* targetting Darwin, building `libstdc++', and not using --disable-symvers
* targetting Solaris 2 with Sun ld, building `libstdc++', and not using
--disable-symvers.

Only the first two belong under the "modifying GCC" heading.

You are targetting Solaris2 with Sun ld, building libstdc++ and not using
--disable-symvers, so Perl (and Glob.pm) is required.
