Someone has also installed perl on the 770, using it for their app.

Something about building a database app? Have to go through my notes to find it.

Edited to add:

Found it. On the Maemo Developer's list, http://maemo.org/pipermail/maemo-dev...ry/002627.html

From Xavier Calbert:

"I have successfully installed PDL with only the plplot library (which is enough for most purposes). Which implicitly implies installing perl too.

"I will try now to turn it into one or several deb packages."

(PDL = Perl Data Language)
