A few years ago I downloaded Perl 5.0. I believe that
it was on QUICS.

You can downloaded the recent sources and compiled it … it works.
Python 1.5.2 is also working. When I remember right … binaries of both
are available at QUICS (free software).

You can download Perl source and compile it under QNX 4.x rather painlesly.
I did it a few times for Perl versions 5.4.x and 5.5.3 and recently for
5.6.? (my memory of the version numbers might not be exact).

Usually, you just configure it with the default values and it compile ok.
You might encounter a few compile warnings and a few test might fail but all
the things I tried worked fine. Note that the configuration and compilation
process are easier if you have TCP/IP Runtime and Toolkit setted up on your
computer.

There is also a module for adding QNX extensions to Perl like QNX inter-task
communication.
