Bug#540338: Confusing manpage

Package: libyaml-perl
Version: 0.68-2
The manpage says the following:
This module has been released to CPAN as YAML::Old, and soon
YAML.pm will be changed to just be a frontend interface module
for all the various Perl YAML implementation modules, including
YAML::Old.
If you want robust and fast YAML processing using the normal
Dump/Load API, please consider switching to YAML::XS. It is by
far the best Perl module for YAML at this time. It requires
that you have a C compiler, since it is written in C.
But there isn't any YAML::XS module on CPAN, nor in Debian.
