Thank you!
Nice change.
I've adjusted your patch and ChangeLog slightly:
  - removed unnecessary $$ret=0
  - I prefer to use (and the rest of the file uses) TABs for
right-margin "\" alignment
  - I've adjusted the perl for style, and improved the
.[ly]-existence-checking section

With that, elapsed time for "make sc_po_check" in libvirt goes from
96s to just 16s.

I'll be happy to push the attached diff or something close, but will
wait a bit, in case there's something else to improve.
