Maybe you just expect that 5 can't be modern in any sense?
That's the subversive part of the title. I believe that Perl 5 code written well--written with the full power of CPAN and features of recent releases and all of the community wisdom developed in the past several years--is as good or better than code written in almost any other language. I also believe that it's reasonably easy to teach a Perl 5 novice how to write code well.
