I thought magenta, though burgundy works too. But when you mention
"rich corinthian" I'm expecting Tattoo to run in shouting "Boss! Boss!

I would dearly like to see extended filenames make it into 6.0.

After I successfully installed JXQ1 yesterday, I reconfigured, recompiled,
retested, and reinstalled Perl/iX.  This is by far the biggest POSIX stress
test of all of my ports, and everything seems to work fine so far.

Perl is much happier now that it can install its funky man page documentation
files with "::" in the filenames.
