For question 1:
perl should be part of the base install.
From a 4.1 box, base install, NO X, packages installed, etc.
$ perl -v
This is perl, v5.8.8 built for i386-openbsd
[cut]
The Socket module should also be there:
$ perl -e 'use strict; use Socket; print("hello\n");'
hello
For question 2:
You will need wiser heads than mine. But I'm pretty sure the answer
will be along the lines of "it depends" - there's danger getting out
of bed and crossing the road ...
