wha?  the 5.005 compat patch did not change behavior at all.  the commit
message says:
  backport to 5.005:
  - open my $fh, ... => my $fh = Symbol::gensym(); open $fh, ...
  - our @foo => use vars qw(@foo)
  - create a stub warnings.pm
  - complain if File::Spec::Functions does not exist

the latter two don't happen if $] >= 5.006, and there's no way the other
two would change how paths are looked at.

BEGIN {
    #Apache likes everything to be in /unix/path/file.ext format
    $INC{'File/Spec.pm'} = __FILE__;
    require File::Spec::Unix;
    @File::Spec::ISA = qw(File::Spec::Unix);
