I would like someone who knows Perl better, such as theUser2, to review this patch.
Although this is a very small patch, theUser2 advised me to be careful when creating full paths.
I tested it successfully under CentOS 5 and CentOS 6.
I intended to use "make_path" instead of "mkpath" if File::Path 2.06 or later was detected. However, I could not figure out how to write a statement like "use File::Path( make_path)" if File::Path->VERSION is 2.06 or later. Specifically, it appears that "use" statements are executed at compile time in Perl, so they cannot be used within an if block. And I cannot just specify "use File::Path" for all versions of File::Path because "make_path" is not exported by default.
EPEL 5: http://perldoc.perl.org/5.8.8/File/Path.html
I recommend a more conditional approach testing the existence of the
make_path (and the mkpath) function during runtimed using the
"defined" command.
