Reverting this and rebuilding 5.12:

t/porting/checkcase............................................FAILED at test 130
t/porting/diag.................................................ok
t/porting/maintainers..........................................ok
t/porting/manifest.............................................ok
t/porting/podcheck.............................................ok
t/porting/test_bootstrap.......................................ok
Failed 1 test out of 1756, 99.94% okay.
        porting/checkcase.t

$ ../perl -I../lib porting/checkcase.t |grep -v ^ok
not ok 131 - lib/Version, lib/version
1..11197

I assume that this patch has somehow become depended upon by one of
our other patches, maybe extutils_hacks, but I can't see why now.

Dominic.
